I haven't posted much lately been busy with work.

Here' a few IRs and one color from a little bike ride.

Tracks by an old dam and lock on the Ohio River.

The side of the lock building.
No longer a working lock/dam.
It is part of Thomas More College now.

This is the "dorms" where students live for studing at the locks.
Very cool sight when driving along the Ohio.

When I was finished at the dam I went down along river and stopped at St.Ann's Convent.
This was the backdrop for some of the filming of Rain Man.
I finally got permission to shoot here and I hope to go back.
Here's a few shots.

    Fred - The IR's are nice especially the Rain Man driveway; super sharp. I like the color shot the best, love the light on the statue. PP? 2 images? ND filter? How'd you capture that one?

    Love these! Usually IR does not do it for me, but these are really well done.

    Moody, surreal, dreamlike. thumb.gif

    I'm not an IR fan, but #6 is very well done. Great tones! And I like the last one, with the statue in the background.
    enjoy being here while getting there

    Looks like the forest (as a part of nature) is advancing to reclaim it's own.

    Todd thanks

    The one with the statue was don with Photoshop.
    Basically you dupe the backdround layer then gaussian blur abt 10 I think.
    Then set to screen blend mode.

    Thank you for the nice comments.

    Yes it is a very cool scene not sure if I captured it like I had seen it.
    The trees look as if they are taking back the graveyard.

    And also it looks like work is finally letting up...so I hopt to be able to shoot and post more.clap.gif

    Thanks Ric
