These are two of my three favorite people in the whole world - my husband and one year old daughter. A mode of transportation that I witness often. This is my first attempt at IR with our "new to us" camera we bought from Philup (thanks Phil!). It doesn't compare to his shots but maybe someday. The specs on the ground look sort of like fallen leaves but they are actually goose doodie.
This is my third recent attempt at trying something besides a set up fruit shot! I want to expand my horizons - even though it will likely costs me a lower average score. Here's to hoping I can stretch out of my fruitopia.
I learned with this pick that basic editing rules are quite stifling to IR.
Levels, channel mixer, saturation,selective color, replace color, crop, unsharpen mask, neat image, border, save for web.

Tim - we can just assume you're going to love all of Aimee's shots. ;)
However, as a father of two girls (6 and 9), I LOVE this shot! So it's going in my faves, too.
Have you bought a baby backpack yet? I used mine a lot and was able to take our girls all over the place. Less neck strain! Just get one from a company who makes normal backpacks.
Look that white sky slightly interrupted by bushes and then the reflecting water... finally the perfet definition of the sail and subjects - you got a nice instant, really! Sepia was the best choice - congrats
very nice emotive image. Classical look to it, I like the lighting - though bright in the trees. The sepia I'm not so sure about. Would be interesting to see this with other tones applied, B&W, maybe a blue or a richer brown/red. Not sure if any others would necessarily work but though I do like the representation of the different shades of brown I'm not sure if the flatness of the color overall is a plus to this particular image. There also seems to be a weird.. crease? of distortion/artifacting running through the center of this image. No idea if that's just issues from uploading or if I'm the only one to see it, but it is distracting (no other photo I've seens so far had it though). Regardless I gave a 6 over all.
