Spanish Bluebells - D700, 85mm PC

Just outside the back door we have a row of these Spanish Bluebells that were glowing in the sunlight this morning. Grabbed the camera with the 85mm PC and a Soft-Ray filter and found this shot. Processed in CS5 using the ‘pixel bender’ oil-paint plug-in.

And now for something completely different…just down the road is this farm I drive by just about everyday. I have started to look for when the light is best and how to  shoot it. Of course IR is always in the back of my mind so here is an IR version of the barn down the road…
