IR Firefighter

HA! BRAND NEW MOTHER- -PICTURE!

IR Wolf

A Prison, A Cage, A Home.

I still don't know how much I like the eyes...

MothMan

FireMan.

This is a composite image of a few different shots done in IR then shopped to living hell, in regards to the color.

Photoshop Tuts?

So I was thinking the last few days...

I no longer wish to tear out my own neck with my shaved-bone fingers, in a bloody cacophony of hatred and depression whenever I see a camera or Photoshop... In face I am enjoying taking pictures again, and shopping them.

I also realized that most of the tuts on the net, for Photoshop, are for strange crap, or fixing small things in a photo... But none of them show you just how to use Photoshop, or elaborate on what certain tools do, and why they are different from all the other ones.

So I was thinking I could fill this niche, that is if people actually would want to see something like that.

My question is: You guys think I should do that?

Some Shopped things!

These are some old Photo I found and Shopped.  The Giraffe was in IR and needed a lot of work, and the Fey is a small model I bought and shot outside, then shopped to look like that.  I was going to try to make it look "real" but I actually like it being "fakeish."

Just some Boom and a nice IR shot

As the title says:

They totally suck, but I feel I should post them anyway, as that was probably the last great storm of the season.

WTF? Color Digital IR sucks.

Alright, I was out last night shooting lightening. Unfortunately I missed any strikes with my IR camera, but I did get some great shots of clouds... The thing is... for some reason, my camera saw Purple in the clouds, not blue, like it should have. The following two photos are my favorite, and all I have done is Unsharppen Mask, then Saturate\Vibrance the colors. I did not add any, only enhance the ones that were already there... and when I did... What the hell? CDIR Photography is a fickle mistress.

Pikes Peak in IR

I know this is a crappy photo of Pikes Peak, especially in IR, but I hadn't uploaded anything recently, so I picked this one out. Hopefully better stuff is to follow.

Kids are great...

As long as you don't own any of your own.

Ah, once again, doing L.E.P.

Just some normal type LEP.

I proved you can shoot Lightening during the day.

And here is the proof. It sucks compared to other stuff I have done, and even worse compared to stuff other people have done. But I shot this photo at 4:00PM in the afternoon.

Damn, should have kept my sword...

This is one of those moments... you wish the sword hadn't stayed in the guys chest...

Mutterings

Just another Photoshop Job on a normal photo.

Black and White.

I don't think I am all that good, but, here are my goes at Black and White.

More Photoshopage

Just some simple Photoshoping I did to a really terrible photo I took of my friends', sisters' little girl. I know the "Evil Red Eye" is overdone and taboo, but the little girl wanted me too, thus: "Evil Red Eye!

I like this glass.

I don't know why, I just love this photo. Other's scouf, but to them, I turn my nose up! Damn it! I like it!

Threw A Glassy Cat, Near Some Water

I know I haven't been updating my blog all that much, but that is mainly for two reasons: My new Kittens won't stop trying to eat the magic moving pointer thing on the screen (i.e. my mouse) and because I have been working so much... taking photos! Yay! I am making money doing what I love!

However, I still have time to blog, thus, a few news photos I have done recently, of course, in IR.

A Note about that Cat. That was shot through very dirty glass. Normally glass does F-eh up IR, in a sense, it polarizes it, but not really. Anyway, the point is, I have no idea how that photo actually came out and\or why. IR is by far the strangest thing I, or any person on this planet, will ever use, and\or photograph.

Have some Grass

This is a photo of some grass shot in IR right as the sun disappeared behind the horizon.

Surprise!

These are some IR shots I photoshopped of my little girl Tabby!
