Bethhesda Fountain is a great subject for infrared, as is much of Central Park, especially during the warmer months when the trees are filled with leaves. Tree leaves and most natural greens usually show up as white in infrared photography, but here I experimented with the hue and saturation controller in Photoshop and ended up transforming those leaves into this yellow/pink hue, which I think contrasts nicely with the infrared blue sky.
