Bodiam Castle Infrared

I was at Bodiam Castle yesterday morning. The grounds do not open until 10:00 am, by which time on a very bright day the harsh light from the sun was not conducive to colour photography. In other words, it was the perfect conditions for infrared, something which I have not done too much of recently.* Not to mention that the castle's outstanding photogenic qualities mean that it is a well worn and familiar subject, so the infrared treatment does at least bring something different to the scene. One benefit of arriving soon after the opening time on a Monday morning is that there were few people around and, although it is not really visible in this shot, conditions were very still. In some of my other photos, I was getting some pleasing reflections in the water of the moat.

This photo is a 13 image panoramic stitch which I did in Lightroom and then converted to monochrome in Silver Efex Pro 2.

* Being asked a while back to write an article about infrared photography for the RPS Digital Imaging Group magazine has reminded me that for a while now it has been a neglected aspect of my work.
