Infrared Photography - Closeup of Leyland Cypress tree branch

in macrophotography •  6 years ago  (edited)

Cypress trees tend to be used as privacy scrubs, as they produce dense branches. It is a evergreen, staying whole all year around. They have vigorous growth, and it shows in how bright they are.

This is my entry for #treetuesday thanks @old-guy-photos for setting up such a challenge.

The branches of this tree in infrared remind me of icicles. It was a bright sunny day, so we got good reflections off the plant.

I take pictures with a special camera. Its a Mirrorless DSLR that has been modified by LifePixel to see light in other wavelengths. This allows my camera to capture light in the Near Infrared (NIR) around 1300 nanometers wavelength, through the visual spectrum and into the Ultraviolet A and B wavelengths roughly into the 300 nanometer wavelength.
