Infrared Photography Single– Mushrooms and Lichen growing on old log
As tree branches fall, the mushrooms move in. Within a few days mycelium will start to grow through the downed wood. Eventually it will reproduce and make little mushrooms on the wood its growing from. Its like the tip of the ice berg idea. The mushroom organism lives throughout the wood, but you usually only see the fruiting bodies when they come up.
There is also some lichen growing on this wood, probably was growing on it for years up in the trees. I see a lot of it at the base of the forest so it shouldnt be a problem for it.
To the right is another piece of wood, looks like something lived inside of it. Those little holes are where carpenter bees live and sometimes made by wood peckers.

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.

thanks @nevlu123 for the animation
great photo my friend and it's good to set it as background
@cityofstars glad you like it. Yes they size quite nicely to 1080p or 1920 by 1080 resolutions.

I can even see the little rings on them :)
The leaves look very cool!
@ewkaw makes me wonder if they were turkey tails. I need to get pictures on both sides. Lots of hardwoods in that forest.. probably the mushroom prefers them. The oak leaves are all over the place.
Hmm... I am not sure. They could be, though they are kind of small.. and more delicate.
brother your all photography is really very meaning full. thanks to share your content. i always try to checked your every content.
