Infrared Photography - Looking across the Chattahoochee river
Getting to the edge of the river without trees all in the way was hard, though I did find one spot that I could get a nice view of the river and the trees on the other side. Using my near infrared filter the sky has a yellowish orange color to it, and the trees are bright white reflecting the infrared back at my camera.
These photos are my posts for #colorchallenge

Along the river the water was calm and glimmered with the reflection of the trees off the water.
There was a little bit of an overhang, adding a different look to the photo. Though I like seeing all of the sky more than the canopy taking up space.
The river goes on but with shrubs and small trees its hard to go down further, maybe one day I can take a boat out there.
I found this opening on the water walking around camp sites and saw the ground well traveled along one of the paths.
I like the ripples in the water, giving the water a more lively look. Sand bars can be seen across the water as well.

I take pictures with a special camera. Its a Mirrorless DSLR that has been modified by Life Pixel to see light in other wavelengths. This allows my camera to see light in the Infrared [IR] around 1300 NM wavelength, through the visual spectrum and into the Ultraviolet A and B wavelengths roughly into the 300 NM wavelength.
I carry many filters on me to make the photos you see in my blog, these filters screw on my lens and help me isolate certain wavelengths for certain scenes. These filters can be IR / UV pass-through filters to assist me get a natural photo taking out the UV and IR light. Or I may use a Infrared pass-through filter capture just IR light. I can do the same with UV light as well, though I need some better filters which they can cost a few hundred dollars for true Ultraviolet pass through filters. So for right now I have B + W 403 bandpass filters that still allow some IR light in, due to their cheaper material.
There are also exotic glasses made of sapphire and germanium I am open to working with to replace my silica glass hot mirror with a material that allows even longer wavelengths of infrared to enter my cameras sensor. Special sensors, lenses and filters of that material would be needed as well, so it would be a big project but one that may give some even more unique photography results.
Addresses below to help me buy better camera equipment and support me to travel to locations to do photo and video and overall great blogs in new places. I would be happy to list some of the contributors in my posts for donations that help me along the way.
