It took me a moment to come back to ground after seeing this one. WOW!

Getting even isn't good enough.
Doing better does.

I am finding that with the new and improved Photomerge command in CS3 that I am using PTGui less and less.

I sat here staring at it for the longest time. It's a masterpiece that I can't take my eyes off. I can just imagine myself there, listening to the birds. Smelling the fresh air and feeling that gentle breeze on my face. HEAVEN.....that's what it is. I wouldn't want to come back down from cloud 9! Thank you Bret, for giving me that piece of Heaven!

Pudentame - 27 Jul 2007 00:37 GMT >> ... >> HEAVEN.....that's what it [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > > Normally, it's Hell that's known for its abundance of infrared radiation. OTOH, according to the Bible, heaven is hotter than hell.
Isaiah 30:26 reads, "Moreover, the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold as the light of seven days."
Heaven receives 7x7 (i.e 49 ~ 50) times as much radiation from the sun as the earth.
The Stefan-Boltzman fourth power law for radiation says (H/E)4=50
The absolute temperature of earth is 300°K (273°+27°). Solving for H gives an absolute temperature for heaven of 798°K (525°C or 977°F).
According to Revelations 21:8, "But the fearful and unbelieving... shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone."
A lake of molten brimstone [sulfur] means that its temperature must be at or below the boiling point for sulfur, 444.6°C.
Therefore, heaven at 525°C is 80.4°C hotter than hell at 444.6°C

Pete D - 26 Jul 2007 21:41 GMT > Here's thinkin of you, kid..... > > http://www.pbase.com/bret/image/82838533/original Hi Brett,
Generally I like your photos but infrared rarely does it for me, I think this one is fairly ordinary by your usual high standards, not a lot of interest in there really.
Cheers.
Pete

Thanks. Don't get me wrong, I never meant to condemn your opinion. I just wanted to add that IR photography is a lot of people's favourite. I shouldn't have repeated myself about Bret's work though. The only IR photography I've ever done was with black and white film. Thanks Pete, Helen

Eric Miller - 26 Jul 2007 22:24 GMT > Here's thinkin of you, kid..... > > http://www.pbase.com/bret/image/82838533/original A very nice shot. I was looking at it, wondering how you got the color in and then I noticed that you missed a spot of sky on the left side of the image. You may want to color that in before you print it (if you plan to do that). Nice work, even the gray sky spot isn't very noticeable.

Now that I look again I notices at least three other spots, two around a cloud column in the center of the image that are obviously where blue sky should be. And again, I still think it's a good image.

Sloppy Photoshop work, that. In the original conversion process all of the sky is blue. Not wanting blue clouds I tried to desaturate them. I got a bit too sloppy at the places you mentioned. I've also been experimenting with different colors for the ground and foilage. This IR thing is still a work in progress.
