Infrared Photography - Firefighters by lake
I was just starting to take pictures in Chattahoochee Bend State park and a firetruck rolls up, I didnt see anyone in trouble so it was kind of weird.

A firefighter came up with their big water hose and begun cleaning the boat ramp. A pressure washing so to say, as the river sediment comes up on the ramp over time and makes trucks get stuck.
You can better see what he is doing now, the water pressure is being used to clean off the boat ramps.
An Ultraviolet and Infrared photo of the parking lot with their fire truck that was being used as a water source to clean off the boat ramp.

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
Better than having a bad fire to fight. And can save some pleasure boater from having a bad day.

@mytechtrail so true, im sure they are happy to do some utility work instead of life threatening work for a change. They said the Chattahooche gets high water levels regually constantly washing up sand on to the ramp causing trucks to get stuck.
