A black and white photograph shot with infrared film in 1981 of the profile of the Sydney Opera House, Australia. The white tiles on the roof of the building make a strong contrast to the pitch-black sky as rendered by the infrared film. Beneath the shells of the roofline the main body of the building is also registered as pure black, with no details. This means the roofline is a semi-abstract sweep across the image on a black background. Canon AE-1 | Kodak High-Speed Infrared film | Hoya Red 25 filter.
Shells in the sun.
