This is kind of funny for me also.....I too am a product of the '70s, but I did like Pink Floyd (maybe a bit too much at times :grin: ), AND I did try shooting a lot of B/W IR stuff back then. There were always some interesting results, but as Tim says, I just never "got it" the way others have. For a while I too thought I was genetically different or something from other great artistic photogs. Always left me wondering what went wrong in the chemistryAhhhh. Now I get it. As it turns out, I am a "product" of the 70s, but never liked Pink Floyd! Thanks for clearing that up, it might be some sort of gene preference thing. :ROTFL:
That makes sense to me and I applaud your willingness to look beyond and explore. Thanks for your honest reply.... The forms are the same, the contrasts totally different, sometimes inverted, giving the scene another, otherwordly feel. Any photograph is an abstraction of reality, these an abstraction of a reality we cannot see.
