Some fun shots around the VCU campus.

The Cycling Club @ VCU was raising some money at the Watermelon Festival by peddling through this heat. They were dripping pools of sweat when I took this picture. I cannot imagine how they were at the end of the festival.

Infrared is a tricky game. Especially when it's cloudy outside. And rainy.

 

I recently had one of my cameras converted full time to infrared.

 

I had a 590nm Filter installed by Kolari Vision.

 

I did some minimal post-processing, channel swapping and fiddling a little with the hue/saturation.

 

Seriously... there is no more fun way to immediately void the warranty on your camera. ;-)
