Tones and Textures 5

Description

This set of five images are from a photo shoot in and around the Big Water of Fleet valley in South-West Scotland. All the images are monochrome. Four have been shot as infrared images, one as a conventional visible spectrum image. Although all the images are recognisable as places along the river side, the shots should be seen as exercises in tones and textures, exercises in Itten contrasts. (See my short article on Itten contrasts here ==> [link]) As such all the images can be seen as abstractions in light and shade, rough and smooth, solid and liquid and so on.


All the images have been treated in the same manner in post-processing, using Canon's DPP and the Gimp. Dark tones have been tweaked to enhance their richness; highlights to ensure no burn-out.
