I love dramatic-looking Infrared images, and I have found that quite often I can take an otherwise unimpressive image and make it pop by simply working with Selective Color and Hue/Saturation in Photoshop.
Here’s an example below
This is a Standard Infrared image at 720 nm. I shot this in St. Louis during my workshop last month.
The image is nice, but that’s the best I can say about it.
There wasn’t anything in the sky going on to help this image.
We can do more with this image with a little post-production.
Here’s what I ended up with after working with the image for just a few minutes.
So, would you like to know how I did it?
Rather than walk you thru the steps written out, I have a video that explains it better
So, how was that? Not too tough didn’t take too long and gave good results.
