Trent and Mersey Canal in Infra Red

A few weeks ago I made a short walk along the Trent and Mersey canal near Stoke on Trent. I started from the adjoining Westport Lake reserve going south. I took photos using my Infra-Red camera.

This section of the canal runs past many derelict buildings, reminders from the industrial ‘Potteries’ era. Here are a few of the results:

Building and canal boat
Canal side panorama of building, wall and canal boat (from 4 images)
Bottle kiln in a derelict industrial landscape (made from 2 images)
A tall canal side building, possibly an old warehouse, looking south
A view north along the canal

I must admit, I am quite pleased with how these images turned out – I may be getting the hang of Infra-Red photography!
