Location City -  Volendam
State -  DUNNO
Country - Netherlands   Netherlands
About Subject background: Some unreal landscape found in Volendam - near Edam, where the famous Edamer is from ;-) This is my alternate vision.

PS concept: This time, I decided to work just on the IR layer and not to add some color layer. Hope you like the surreal outcome. Several layers of channel mixer.

Carsten Ranke   {K:14453} 6/13/2005
Yes, very surreal, and very attractive ! Great result.


Stefan Engström   {K:24473} 6/13/2005
This is very good, looks a bit like snow but then there is a bit of a gotcha and it just looks kind of alien. I didn't know you could use the D70 for IR.


Angelo Villaschi   {K:49617} 6/13/2005
Thilo,

I think the main thing is that it is an interesting scene to begin with and you have composed it well. Good choice with the symmetric composition. It reinforces the calm appearance of the place and sets out the interest in the sky, as well as on the tree at the converging lines.


Antonio Trincone   {K:23167} 6/13/2005
your coloured IR shots are fantastic thilo; and I remember that place Volendam!


Maria Luisa Vial   {K:36017} 6/13/2005
Lovely... Is like view the painting of a dream... Excellent composition and perspective... I do not know how you make, but the sky in your photos is always awesome... Great reflection...

Cheers,

MaLuisa

Very dramatic, very dreamy, more than wonderful, I like it as it is the most,
Very well done Thilo, please post more,
I have a question in regard to the IR, is it a PS plugin you are using, or is is a lens?!!
Kind Regards,


Gayle's Eclectic Photos   {K:91033} 6/13/2005

Clifton........


Andre Denis   {K:56377} 6/14/2005
Thilo,
Congratulations on the BIP!
You have out done yourself again! This shot is spectacular! I really like the dark slate colour of the sky, The effects are great.

Interesting for me is the same sort of situation that I had in my post of the window frame recently. The larger tree on the left side seems to enhance the photo rather than ruin the symmetry.
Great job Thilo!
Andre


Bradley Prue   {K:30312} 6/14/2005
As impressive as the IR effect is....I am even more impressed with your ability to compose a shot like this. The geometrics are juicy, and the colors that jump out at you make such a bold statement! Congratulations on the reward that is so deserved! My hat's off... ..Brad


Ellen Smith   {K:14418} 6/14/2005
Beautiful, the BIP is well deserved. Great job.

Zeev Scharf   {K:24824} 6/14/2005
Beautiful Ir shot Thilo,colours and scenery are superb
Congrat on well deserved BIP
7+++++++++++
My best regards


Magnus Beierlein   {K:1490} 6/14/2005
Outstanding Thilo ! Sharp, crisp and fairytale-like.....I guess it?s places like this that created generations of world class Dutch skaters. Only in Holland, Sweden, germany and a couple of other places you'll find perfect rows of houses and trees like this....makes me think of the book "The stepford Wives" by Ira levin.

Magnus


Ursula Luschnig   {K:21809} 6/14/2005

Thilo Bayer   {K:50301} 6/14/2005
Hi Ameed,

it's done with a Hoya R72 filter on the D70. No Photoshop plugin is able to do this in such an extreme way ;-)

best wishes,

Thilo


Thilo Bayer   {K:50301} 6/14/2005
Hi Stefan,

the D70 is very good for IR ;-) (although I'm not very happy that the sensor lets so much IR lights through for normal pictures)

Thilo


Thilo Bayer   {K:50301} 6/14/2005
Hi Antonio,

this shot is NOT colored, by the way ;-)

Just levels work on the original IR picture.

Thilo


Thilo Bayer   {K:50301} 6/14/2005
Hi MaLuisa.

the strong sky comes from the data the IR filter piles up ;-)

best wishes, Thilo


Thilo Bayer   {K:50301} 6/14/2005
