Infrared landscape photograph of Joshua trees silhouetted against a twilight sky with reddish foliage.

James Pearson-howes, Photographer, London

About

This landscape photograph by James Pearson-Howes captures a desert scene featuring distinct Joshua trees in silhouette. The upper foliage of the trees exhibits a deep reddish hue characteristic of infrared capture, contrasting sharply with the darkening twilight sky and distant rolling hills. The composition frames the moody, atmospheric environment under a muted sky, with visible film borders adding an analogue texture to the frame. The lighting creates a striking distinction between the shadowed landscape and the colored botanical details.
