Jörn Reppenhagen Posted March 8, 2019 Author Share Posted March 8, 2019 (edited) I was told this is a horrendous picture. Depends on the point of view. I find it quite interesting for two different aspects: 1) Original photo was pretty blurred, still it was possible to recover a lot of details. 2) The blueish background makes the motive appear like warm-colored - while it's pure b/w grayscale.

Jörn Reppenhagen Posted March 8, 2019 Author Share Posted March 8, 2019 (edited) Yes, this is infrared. I'll attach a small version of the original photo right out of camera. I found it highly interesting as I realized all that intense colors were still in the photo.

Lucio Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 Hi Joern, good results, i have a converted camera with a cut at 720nm. I come from Gimp/Darktable (Linux OS) and I'm new to recent Pro software on Windows. I'm trying to find a productive workflow for IR images development in Affinity (i also use DXO Photolab). Could you tell my where to find any Affinity tutorial about this subject? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdK Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 Until now, I've used Nik software for my B&W (including IR) processing. This same software can be added to Affinity Photo as a free plugin. How-to instructions for adding the plugin are available in these Affinity forums. I have a free IR book in my on-line eBook Library (all made with Affinity Publisher, by the way). Also, there are numerous IR articles in my Photo Improvement blog (use the blog's search box). Finally, on this same blog, there's a 12-part Silver Efex Pro 2 tutorial which includes a Workflow section. Hope you find this useful. firstdefence and Lucio 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdK Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 I should have mentioned that the eBook Library site also has a collection of IR portfolios that you may enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a photographer so I wonder, are infrared images captured with a special infrared camera? My understanding of infrared is light outside (below) the visible spectrum so it seems special hardware would be required...

EdK Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 The eBook that I referenced will answer all of your questions - and more (and yes IR requires camera modifications and/or special lenses - and techniques). You can read the book in about 20 minutes and know all that you need to know. casterle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
