Luccombe Down

Image Location : Luccombe Down, Isle of Wight.

Luccombe Down is a chalk down, in the southeast of the Island, located close to the town of Ventnor next to St Boniface Down which is the highest point on the island at 241 meters (791 feet) above sea level.

The image was captured mid-morning using a Panasonic DMC-G7 and a Lumix G Vario 12-35mm F/2.8 lens set to 19mm (equivalent to 38mm on a full frame camera). This camera has been modified to capture IR (Infrared) light and also block visible light, so the colours captured are not normal. The camera was set to Manual with 1/320th second exposure at f/7.1, ISO 200 and using autofocus. The RAW processing and final adjustments were all done in Photoshop CC. This image is a single exposure and it was hand colored in a Photoshop layer.
