For this visit to Cannock Chase I took both my usual camera and my infra-red camera so that, in addition to capturing the autumn beauty of the place, I could compare how colour images compare with B&W infra-red views. In some of the photos the sky looks a bit dull but then it was a pretty dull, bland, overcast sky. Here is a selection of photos taken on the day:
A combined colour & infra-red view showing how the tonality of the trees changeA colour view with the larches showing a vibrant yellowThe infra-red version shows the larches in a dark toneThis is a combined view for a side-by-side comparisonAnother view with yellow larches but here the sky is starting to show some blueAn infra-red version of the previous imageAnother scene that doesn’t look anything special in colour…… but looks quite different in infra-red
This is a colourful view on bracket fungus on a tree
But it looks so different in infra-red
This was an interesting exercise; I could start to see, for some foliage, how they lose their whiteness when viewed in infra-red.
