A SPECIAL LIGHT COME SPRING, BOSTON IS AGLOW WITH GALAS AND GARDENS. BY JARED BOWEN 12  BOSTONCOMMON-MAGAZINE.COM May means party season in this town, right on through June (then, the champagne is uncorked on the islands). While Boston's glitteratti are hitting the social scene, photographer Jeremy Barnard captures the city in a different light. With his recent series, Beyond Our Vision , Barnard delivers us into a gossamer world. Trees along the esplanade shout with an epic radiance. Water pools like the delicate ripples of silk. The skies are paint- erly, moody, and otherworldly. The images you see here are the product of his work with infrared—a process by which the camera blocks most of what's seen on the visible light spectrum and only captures infrared light. "To be able to reveal this unseen world is exciting," Barnard says. Since the 1960s Barnard has focused on what his idol Henri Cartier-Bresson did: street scenes... empty expanses: visions of a world out of sight, but within reach. Unseen: Photography Beyond the Visible is showing April 20–May 13 at the Providence Center for the Photographic Arts, 118 North Main St., Providence RI, 401-400-2542; providencephoto.org; and by appointment at Ting Barnard's Studio, 269 South Main Street, Providence, RI, 617-595-6768; ting@ tingbarnard.com; jeremybarnard.com .
