I returned to The Huntington with my infrared and visual cameras to capture some of the expanded Chinese garden in infrared. I had hoped for a bit more cloud cover since that makes for more interesting IR shots, but since tickets must be selected ahead of time that’s not always possible. I started off in the older portion of the Chinese garden and moved to the northern expansion. I then moved up the hill at the western side of the expanded garden and was fortunate to have little haze in the sky for a clear view of the San Gabriels. I ventured over to the Japanese garden to get a few shots there. Generally I don’t like the Japanese garden for infrared due to too much foliage, but a good composition can be had by the little pond.
Looking across the Lake of Reflected Fragrance we see the Waveless Boat on the left and Clear and Transcendent on the right at the north side of the lake.
