I was out experimenting with two ideas I had on ways to achieve IR photography in a different way. There are a few things about IR that I want to see happen. Namely, the goal was, achieving color by working on white balance. My experiments did not fail. They did not succeed completely either. I could see an improvement and did get some more ideas on how to reach my goal. I had a few pictures that I liked though. It was not easy to choose just one.
In the end I choose the one with picnic tables in it. It reminds me of someone I have known for a long time. It is not the best picture of the day but it is the one evokes the personal attachment in me. We all look at pictures/images and get something out of them. They are made more because we take something out of them. Without that personal touch of the viewer it is not a complete piece. As an artist, I find that it is important to remind myself that the viewer completes the story, even when I am the viewer.
