Santee Lake Number 5 in Infrared

My wife and I took my infrared camera for a walk around Santee Lake Number 5 in Santee, California this afternoon on a day with nice clouds.. This image has the elements that I look for in infrared photography - water, trees and clouds. I used channel swapping to turn the sky blue. Here is a link to a tutorial on playing with infrared images. www.lifepixel.com/photo-tutorials/infrared-photoshop-videos

 

I've been taking infrared images for at least 15 years with a total of 3 different cameras. It's much easier to take infrared images digitally that it was in the film days. If you like this look, I have an album of infrared photographs, creatively named Infrared.

Other pictures that I've taking over the years at Santee Lakes can be seen in my Santee Lakes album.
