    Traditional infrared film requires throwing the lens out of focus towards the foreground. As long as your in focus point is in the foreground, everything past it will be in focus in a graduating way, but nothing major. I focus on the closest thing I need as sharp as possible, and then slightly rotate my lens out of focus away from infinity a "touch" before firing the shutter. In this case the front barn wall was the starting focal point and then threw it out of focus about 6ft to the foreground. The exposure here is a standard infrared light value of 125 @ f16 shot on a very sunny day with a dark blue sky in a nikon f2, 24mm lens w/red filter. The title makes it creepier too.

    Mark: PeggySue Harrington walks on water in my opinion. I love her work and everytime she leaves me a comment, I feel redeemed and affirmed in a very selfish way. You should check out her work...but surely you've seen her fabulous images. I am always in awe..

    why, when they're so much intensity right here?
    actually I do live pretty close to where this was shot, however I do not know if the barn still stands.
