Lucia Bucklin

Bucklin wants her photography to strike an emotional chord with the individual viewing it and touch their mind, heart, and soul. She believes that the most beautiful things in life are the most simple. Bucklin shoots with Infrared Film for the surreal, ethereal and haunting images it creates. The world seems mysterious and dream-like... a wonderful escape into beauty that the naked eye cannot see.

Infrared Film is sensitive to light we cannot see. It was developed over 75 years ago for scientific purposes. When crops were photographed from the air with Infrared film, healthy plants recorded white while diseased plants showed up black. About 30 years ago, Fine Art photographer's "discovered" Infrared and its creative possibilities.
