Digital Infrared Photography

This summer, I have been capturing many Infrared (IR) images at Seattle's Arboretum, Gasworks Park, Kubota Gardens, and Discovery Park. Images are taken with a Nikon D80 and Hoya R72 IR Filter.

To create these surreal scenes, I use a filter that blocks out almost all light except for the infrared spectrum. Green foliage appears white and the required long exposures add a unique motion to the clouds.

Pioneer Square

I am now sharing a studio in Seattle's historic pioneer square district. Last week, I had some time after a session to explore the neighborhood.

City Streams

My favorite night subjects are the urban highway streams of light. I am always amazed at the patterns and flow of the night travelers.
