These shots are all from Elmwood Cemetery in Northeast KC. It is the resting place for some of Kansas City's elite from the last two centuries. These images were taken using the infrared spectrum. It requires a special filter and a spectrum friendly sensor which some of the newest digital cameras don't possess. Green shows white in black and white and pink in color. Interestingly bees and other insects use the infrared portion of the spectrum to find the centermost point of flowers. Blooms have colors for us in visible light and colors for insects in infrared. The last image, taken by Bjorn Rorslett, shows the difference.
Are you working on a pictorial book of KC? If not, you should be. I sincerely love your photos...
ReplyDeleteThanks Moxie. No, not actively. Just love what I do. Try to take a few each day... doesn't always work out. Sell some of the shots from the website. Need to do a gallery show sometime.
ReplyDeleteSounds like MM is making a pre-order. I am all about the pre-orders. You know, you can make books with MacStuff, so I've seen in galleries (as accompaniments to video art).
ReplyDeleteI like the book idea. It would be very popular with the Union Station/Gallery crowd. You should do a layout for Review Mag and see if they would help publish it.
