Infrared and Ultraviolet Photography

Don Komarechka

Photography is a weave of art and science. The deeper you weave these two sides together, the more impressive the results. This talk aims to explore the use of science - much of which can be explored at home - to create beautiful artwork. Everything from using water droplets like tiny crystal balls to pushing the absolute limits of light itself. You'll be amazed at how approachable some of these subjects are, but you've never Landscape photography is the type of photography that draws people to it. The allure of magically transporting your viewers to that magical place and letting them feel what you felt as you click the shutter. That ability is what is so appealing to Landscape photography.
Before, in order to take a great image, lots of very heavy equipment and expensive camera was needed. Now our smart phone is capable of great capture.
In order to stand out from the crowd I use IR to capture my Landscape images. You still need to consider the other elements in a photograph such as composition, lighting, and storytelling to take it from snapshot to gallery. 
IR Photography is mysterious as it is awe inspiring. It elicits such a wide-ranging response as spooky and eerie to ethereal and surreal. It gives you as much creative liberty as you desire. When done well, you will produce images that will take your breath away.
We will discuss briefly about what is IR, from definition to history to application. Next, we will cover how I use it for my BW Landscape. We will go over the different nm, and the expected results of each to help your creative process. 
Finally, we will go over the Post Processing. We will discuss step by step the different software and particular use for each to make your stunning breath-taking masterpiece.
Come join us for this magical ride!
