Queen Elizabeth Park IR 07 May 21 2009 raw

This afternoon I roamed around the new condo's near and about Vancouver's Yaletown area. A decent day for IR but, sigh, short on clouds. Boring skies turn IR photography into but cool high contrast black and white photography. .... Le sigh.

I love how IR treats buildings though. At least the ones in downtown Vancouver. Clear and crisp ... Very much a "the day after we landed on this new planet and built these buildings" feeling to it. Warm like the Snow Queen on the movie "The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe". Perfect for B&W pushed into the infra red end of the visible light spectrum.

This photo however has nothing to do with the above. It was taken 2 months ago at Queen Elizabeth Park. I love nature in IR. It's like life gone wild.
