A few people have asked me to do this. A few very nice people who have been contacts on Flickr for as long as I can remember. The people in question always seem to find the photos that I have the most fun taking in the first place. The photo on the front cover is a case in point.
This book is a collection of my photos taken over the last three years or so. It’s broken down in to three sections: Infrared, Fur & Feathers and Shadows and Reflections. So, as well as a collection of the better infrared shots, expect cows, sheep and ducks and some unusual shadows and reflections.
I ought to have called it “Infrared landscapes, some cows, some sheep, some horses, a few more cows and a few ducks”. The text on the spine looked a bit small though so I went back to a simple title ;)
The book is being sold at the lowest possible price so that I’m not going to personally profit from it.

Posted 01 Apr 2008 at 8:59 am ¶Hehe - it’s not an april fool, and I hope the people who bought it don’t think it is after getting it as well!
I am somewhat taken aback how quickly this was dived on and people actually buying it as well. Mad! :)
Once all of the nice people have bought it I might put the price up! ;)

Will definitely buy one: I am one of those people who doesn’t have a credit card, and Blurb is one of the few places that won’t take debits or Paypal, so I’ll mail you. Ta. :)
