Ely in Monochrome

 The clouds when we met up in Ely Marketplace streaked across the whole sky - ideal subjects for the pocket-sized Sony RX100 that I had converted to infrared some years ago. By the time we walking through the Park to the river for lunch, the clouds had cleared and the vegetation was very bright with the amount of IR being omitted.

Welcome(?) to Bridlington

Grey skies, intermittent rain and not too welcoming signs met us on our evening stroll but there are some charming steps and alleyways even on the funfair front. Hopefully the rain may hold off for some of the time though the weather forecast  looks pretty grim! 

Infrared Images from Juniper Hall Trip

Images  taken with a Sony RX100 compact camera converted to record infrared light. The first images were taken early in the morning on one of the moth trapping sessions; the others later in the day around Juniper Hall with its wonderful gardens complete with lots of different habitats (as you would expect from a Field Studies Centre!!).

My Village in Infrared

Some infrared images of my village, Toft in Cambridgeshire, on a changeable day this week. Managed the entire walk without getting wet which was an achievement - as you see from the very large puddles everywhere, we have had a lot of rain. 

CCC Outing to Eddington, Cambridge

Some of the newer (and more established!!) members of Cambridge Camera Club explored the West side of Cambridge yesterday including Eddington which is a new sustainable development to the west of Cambridge that normally is only noticed when using the Madingley Park and Ride or visiting Sainsbury's. 

The architecture from a distance is very uniform and potentially very uninteresting to photograph but closer it becomes apparent that a lot of effort has gone into giving each building individuality - for instance the 'randomly' staggered windows in the first image and the different window shapes and sizes in the second. I did not spend as long as I intended on the buildings as we decided to head to the lake while the light was good. The meshwork tower near the lake in the bright sunlight was an intriguing subject  (Sony RX100 converted to 720nm infrared).
