  Infrared with a Glow
After posting this same photo, I decided that I like the look of the old IR film which had a soft glow look. To process this look, I ran the image through NIK Color Efex and used the default setting of Glamor Glow. Brought the image back into Lightroom and moved the Clarity slider to the left until the look that I wanted was just right. Compare with the other tack sharp image below.

  A Bird Dropped a Seed in the back Yard

This Daisy plant was from a bird that dropped a seed last year. We have a bird feeder close by. The plant appeared by surprise this Spring. Daisy's like Sunflowers face the sun in the morning. I used various apps on the iPhone to crop, clean up and frame the photo. This was all done on the iPhone.

  A walk in the Park
Took a walk yesterday in the bright Sun with my Canon G10 that had been converted to an Infrared Camera. This shot is near Algonquin Road at the South end of Prairie Lakes Park. This is a new angle on similar shots taken by photographer, Ernie Stolle. I shot in Digital IR Color and then used NIK Silver Efex Pro to convert to a black and white image. Infrared loves bright sun.

Coming home from Door County in February we stopped by the lake front and shot images of the storm clouds and wind.
