+1 for Lightroom, I use it everyday. It has some small limitations that sometimes force me into Photoshop for big jobs (removing elements, adding layers etc) but 95% of my photos are only run through LR
You can easily tell if a photo is near-infrared or not by looking at grass and other foliage. As it reflects NIR, it should turn white, as can be seen on your previous shots of the dunes, for example.Well for Heaven's sake I could have sworn that was infrared! That's awesome!
OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is absolutely beautiful!!!!! You could totally sell that. I LOVE YOUR PICTURES!!! That is my new desktop background. So let me get this straight... you used infrared to take the shot and then processed it through the Lightroom thingy?? How much does it cost to get Lightroom?You can easily tell if a photo is near-infrared or not by looking at grass and other foliage.

Here's another one by me:
And this is what it looked like out of the camera, before processing. Shot from a moving car (I was passenger, of course), f/2.8, 1/750s, ISO 100. Short exposure times like that are only possible with a modified camera.
I use Adobe Lightroom as well. Unfortunately, it cannot do that red-blue channel swap by default, but there are workarounds.
Thank you so much!!! I'm looking into it as we speak!The latest version of LR is a subscription based service I think, I use LR5 and I picked it up for about $100 I think. I know that Adobe gives good discounts to students so you may want to look into that if you or someone in your household has a student ID. I'm fairly certain you can get a free trial for 30 days.
Lovely!! Tortoises make such great photo subjects!
Which is cuter... the kid or the tort? Tough decision!I think it's kind of funny that a gallery thread has become a photography thread.
Here is a random picture I took with my phone, just so I can continue to pretend this is still about tortoises...
Those are amazing!! I love your creativity!!! How did you get that one picture to look so vibrant with the grass?!!
