A great Dali in Arizona B&W#190, Michael. Love it. Then a Small Lantern by Ruth and a dream in the making By Lisa. Great B&W’s but I also learned a lot about dreaming in the former posts. The Challenge Of Dream Recall by Keelin must have triggered this stream of dreams. This one and The Wild Brush Of The Expressionistic Painter have something special in common that gives them a mysterious appeal. Like a dream indeed.
An Attempt To Dream OnThanks Michael for this nice kick-off of Volume 4, showing an example of Asperitas that’s rough and gentle at the same time.
Almost Unicolored
I have asked it to visit the other side of the pond. The rain had stopped but there was still som in the distant causing a segment of a redbow in the setting sun.
Autumn Delight
Fantastic, the wolf is on its return. I summoned The Djinn already summoned in the B&W thread. Wish him to send some clouds and rain to California.
Also creatures from mythology make their entrance on this call.
Resting Minotaur
George, there was too long no response on your fantastic circumscribed halo. Great capture. I have never seen one like that. I hope to see one some time.
Next one seems to be a more frequent visitor in the sky but maybe not always this complete.
Your #913 is indeed a marvelous coincidence of three phenomena Michael. great catch to make a nice composition. And it is funny to see that the archive makes pictures wrinkle, Keelin.
Autumn has come on this side of the pond.
More Blues
Great texture in Arizona Cloudscape #409 Michael. And great band of Stratus in Low Hanging Fruit Ruth. Next one hangs also low and bears fruit. I was lucky the fruit did not drop.
Just Menacing
A Mint Julep, an icy view in Snow Below, exuberance and warm Pastel Impressions at last. Wow, it is all a treat. I can feel the shivers in Snow Below. I must admit that I had to look several times but I did found the face filled with delight, Keelin. Once seen …..
Cloud Study In Blue II
Great soft texture in #189 Michael. One Way And Another is a marvelous duo Keelin perfectly showing the fun of experimenting. Great fine lines in both and especially striking in And Another. Love them. Experimenting this way is like rubbing a jar and finally find a …
Djinn
Thanks Dave. Very nice to see a B&W version of your asperitas sky. I love the capriciousness of these clouds. Next one is very different. In stead of capricious the lines are gentle. Still asperitas.
I am sorry when I react too nerdy Dave, but I read in your explanation “Blue light is called cool and yellow light is called warm. This corresponds to the energy levels across the electromagnetic spectrum.” The first of these two sentences is right but unfortunately for the second one it is the other way around. Blue light has a higher energy and red light a lower energy.
What’s confusing is that in normal language a red color is called warm and a blue or white color called cold. The way we speak about this is not related to real temperature or energy. The energy of a photon is directly proportional to its frequency or inversely proportional to its wavelength. In contrast with this fact is the color temperature of a light bulb called cool when the temperature is that high that the body radiates a blue / white light and called warm when the body radiates red light. Quite confusing in my opinion.
Anyway this nerdy detail does not harm your nice explanation of ir photography. So many thanks for that. The results of your ir images are amazing and its dramatic results seem fit for a black and white conversion.
