Road trip

I went on a road trip to wellington - only 3 hr, but long enough that I (with no car) can't make it very often - I of course took a totally impractical set of camera's - my IR camera (tripper cam) and a holga (which didn't get used). My main aim was to buy photo chemistry and some nice second hand clothes - both aims were achieved admirably. I only took photo's on the way there - while I was there i was too busy shopping. Here's a limited selection.

A random road trip scene - I like the zoom effect.


















Tis the season - i like the colour in this more to be honest - it's wonky :D























A purple hill - no sage involved.

















Some blue trees. As per usual.

















This is a town, I forget which one. The tree's were a pretty purple.

















That is all - just a selection.

And some more digi IR - this was from a walk I went on this morning.

Walking across a train bridge.

















Ditto - same bridge.

















Some tree's - I'm sure I can use this shot for something...

















A cabbage tree - yup.























And a band that were playing this afternoon :D

Infrared at work

I took the taped up wee beastie (digi IR camera - see below) to work and got these.

This is my work place - I work in a hot house pollinating flowers currently - though not for terribly long now. Kinda spooky looking really.



















And this is the view out the back of work.

Yeah, I work in the countryside.

slacker

Well, it's the next holidays, and I'm still terminally slack at updating this blog - I've had like 3 exhibitions since the last update.

I'm gonna do this all ass backwards for the next month or so - newest stuff first and the old stuff when I can be bothered - first up, I've worked out how to bugger up a cheap digital camera so it see's infrared - next is the permanent conversion - that will happen when i have some lighting gells to act as a filter.

This was my first outing with the digi IR camera - I just taped a bit of exposed and debeloped C41 film over the lens - that didn't seem to bother the camere so much, these are the results.


This is pitt St - just like the sign says.

















And then I crossed the road

















An another 50 yards on there's a bridge - Yay bridge!


















And then behind you was a bowling green - which is now defunct.


















And for some reason bowling people do this to lawns.
