Furka pass ...

... in Switzerland again ...

And again, Infrared, can't stop it ... takes a bit more time while taking the photos and a bit more home work, but I still like doing it...

Wonderful and again, a unique approach to IR.

I'm intrigued by the zig-zag patterns going almost all the way up the mountains both in the foreground and in the far distance. Surely they're not roads?!
Posted 16 months ago. ( permalink )

Frank Brauner says:

Thank you all for your nice comments. I'm really happy!

@vexed&confused Thanks and ... these are roads connecting the Simplon Pass with the Furka Pass, maybe you can look at the map (I placed the viewpoint on the map). This area is always very beautiful (impressing) but with low clouds it is even better (for me). I was a lucky photographer that day. I was only one day in the higehr alps (Susten, Grimsel, Furka, ...).

Thanks again! Cheers, Frank

Retinol says:

Switzerland has some of the most fantastic European landscapes, together with Iceland. I was lucky enough to travel through this country a few years ago and admire it's beauties. This is one of the greatest spots and you managed to reproduce the atmosphere around it very well: space, depth, light and drama, exactly how I remember it.

The ir effect doesn't seem to be so obvious in this case as in other pictures. Colors look absolutely natural!

lovely light it dos not look like IR - which is a compliment !
Posted 16 months ago. ( permalink )

Frank Brauner says:

Thank you very much for your nice comments!
@Kadria, thank you! IR photography needs a lot of attention in equipment (and home work), it depends on what you like to create.
Some information about cameras can be found here...
www.flickr.com/groups/infrared-landscapes/dis cuss/7215760...
Here is a thread for absolute beginners...
www.flickr.com/groups/infrared/discuss/721576 03353593514/
Several filters are available (hard and soft filtering) I think it is too complex to describe it here ... But I think once your IR system is running, it is highly addictive :) (If you are still interested we can continue with flickr mail) Thanks for your comments and interest!

I like the subtle play of light on the valley floor. The image is made up of 4 overlapping 'magic' triangles that the eye loves so much. I look for these triangles in the landscape all the time. Well done.
