Loverly. The symmetry works well for the subject, and the fact you got down low to put some interest in the foreground. Like the B&W affect to.
Got a tip for us?

Many thanks AFB. The featureless blue sky made a B&W conversion seem the sensible thing to do although the degraded look of the paintwork etc also helped point to that treatment.
Cheers.
That looks stunning. The contrast between the sky and the light shining on the lighthouse is incredible. Red filter? It is lovely. I really like a B&W picture with deep contrast and an almost gel like look. Very nice.
Some Bluebells I photographed earlier today. As my D7100 is getting a sensor clean, I had to keep swapping lenses a lot more than usual today. 105 mm Macro for this one.

Cheers Kenoh. Polarising filter at capture time to really get an intense blue sky - simply darkened the blue tones in the B&W conversion to get the almost black sky.
I do like a good blue photo. Seriously though, both lovely rich colours. Nicely done both of you.

Not as strong as the B&W's from the other day IMO.
Went back today to a subject I shot in IR several years ago. A tree at the Swan Point Cemetery in Providence looking out over a body of water. I got there later than I wanted which influenced the highlights on the leaves and the shadows on the ground. There was someone already there shooting birds and I wanted to stay out of his way, so had a limited choice of shooting spots for composition. Not sure what I can ultimately achieve with this subject. It's a current work in progress for me, but felt like sharing what I got today.
Was out shooting a modeling session when I saw this dog playing frisbee and just had to snap a few.

I had to Google it as I'd never heard of it.

How you liking it? The UI looks a little dated in the version I read about.

Another view of the lighthouse. Comments always appreciated.

Lovely.
Well I bought it before I got the S3 Pro, and it brings about the same colour intensity on other cameras.
I can't properly compare to real Velvia film because I don't have any at the moment.
Cheers
