Wendy Whiteley's Secret Garden

[digartal]

Everyone needs a secret garden in their life and you’re invited to visit Wendy Whiteley’s Secret Garden, a public garden and much loved oasis in the heart of Sydney.

Located a short walk over the Sydney Harbour Bridge, or a closer stroll from Milsons Point and North Sydney train stations, the Secret Garden is a haven where you can explore meandering pathways discovering sculptures as you go; enjoy a picnic basket or read a book at one of the tables or benches beneath the garden’s canopy; or you can simply enjoy the nature and serenity of your beautiful surrounds. You may even stumble across a hidden fairy house.

Created over the past 20 years by artist Wendy Whiteley, wife and muse of Australian artist Brett Whiteley, the Secret Garden is nestled behind Luna Park in one of Sydney's most spectacular, and possibly smallest suburbs, Lavender Bay.

Nice,

It would be interesting combine both normal and infrared images with masks.

Thanks

Thanks Alex, would be quite difficult to do with my camera. My camera is converted to capture handheld infrared images only and not visible light images. You could use a normal camera with an IR filter (exposure 6 times longer, so a tripod is required) or two identical cameras (one converted to IR) and lenses but alignment is an issue.

Generally an IR image is not a visibe light image as they use different lighting and contrast. These shots would have been very green with all the plants and far less contrast/tonal range.

The other option is to false colour the IR image using AI in PS but often not realistic - see below. Also, Masks in PTE are a bit beyond my knowledge and skills at this point.

Thanks for commenting and the suggestion.

Nice work Mark

Infra-red certainly has a very different look to it

Sorry we missed the Garden when we were in Sydney too many years ago
