Winding road in the forest - Infrared Photography

in photography •  5 years ago 

During our hike on the Pinhoti trail, we came across a split on the dirt path and decided to check out one of the roads. It led to an opening to a major road in the forest. I am not sure which one it was but saw cars driving down it.

We heard the highway before we saw it, cars going up and down the road every so often. It was funny hiking for hours just to come across a road, Im used to just staying in the forest. I wonder how far we were from our car, probably a few miles.

The light coming up from the morning was illuminating the tree tops near by giving them a bright white appearance.

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.
