Sport and Racing Infra-Red Photos
Horse racing in colour infra-red is the sport I like to photograph most. I am not looking for specific riders or their mounts, but rather using the spectacle to create images in infra-red colour photographs which epitomize the sport. The colours that arise are false and magenta rules on the turf. There are vintage images of Prince Charles playing polo on a sea of magenta.
The abstract quality of these infra-red images is what interests me. Infra-red colour film as it was processed on Ektacrome .4 is no longer available but I am working with the new film (E.6) and experimenting with filters to tone down the bright pinks.
