To Start--Some of My Favorites

I love landscape and nature photography. Always have. I especially love photography that uses a texture as an overlay. The application of textures adds dimension and depth to a photograph. It also enriches the colors and gives a richness to the scene that I've never seen captured any other way. Seldom am I ever disappointed once I've found the "right" texture for the "right" photograph. In this first post, I thought I'd show some of my favorite photographs I've taken over the last couple of years with textures applied. I hope you enjoy.

My World In Infrared

I love infrared photography. I just recently discovered it. The bold otherworldly colors of an infrared photograph are like no other you will ever see. The black and white stuff leaves me feeling useless. But color infrared puts a big ol sloppy grin on my face when I manage to do it "right." The ones on display with this post were taken with a new infrared lens that provides "extra" color to the image. And as you can see, that is no lie. If you've never dabbled in infrared, I highly recommend it. There is a weird ethereal quality to it that makes a photograph glow. Add bold strange colors and throw in a texture or two and these are what you get. Let me know what you think.
