Lee

Robert Burne
Flesh

Lee generously permitted me to take this portrait. At infra-red wave-lengths, skin actually becomes translucent and the image responds to the warmth of the underlying flesh. One consequence is that the pigments of her tasteful tattoo are accentuated. Note also the effect on the dark sun-glasses.

The infrared effect is great here, Bob! Her tattoo really stands out. It also makes her sunglasses look strange!
