I had been so excited by the regular photos that came out of this Utah trip, THAT I didn’t really spend a lot of time working on the IR Photo’s that I took. The thing about IR is that you have to really work them to see the potential. They always need the levels and curves adjusted. The pictures are by their nature a little bit soft. So you need to work a little harder on sharpening them.
I wanted to pick out a few IR photos to add to my new site, and was surprised that none of the Utah photo’s had been given a high rating. I went back to the photo’s from that trip. I realized that there was really some potential here and went about the job of processing the photos. I found that Nik’s Color Effects Pro did a good job of getting the pictures to the level of crispness that I wanted. I also took some of the photos and converted them to B&W in Nik’s Silver Effects Pro 2. IR photos are great candidates for B&W Conversion. The dark skies, and more intense tonality can be the basis for really striking B&W. Here’s the entire gallery; Utah in IR.
