  Taken in a field in Connemara using my Olympus OM 2n +24mm lens and Kodak HIE B&W Film. Printed on Ilford MG IV Fibre paper.

  Thanks Connie, to me it reminds me of photos that I’ve seen of beached whales hence my title.

  Cheers

  I love shots like these, we all see something different. Should have also said I like the way the B&W has been processed.

  Looks good. I’ve thought from time to time of trying Infrared film, but never got round to it. I usually use my DSLR with a Hoya R72 filter.

  ive used near IR film like SFX 200, much easier to handle than the “real” stuff, must say that HIE produces an amazing grain, that just cant be matched.
  Great image.

  Thanks for your comments folks. I would like to see the results you got with SFX 200 Sinead.
