thank you, I agree its very cool. Its amazing how water reflects light differently, and plants have an icy glow to them. I hope to discover new things in these spectrum's, lll share them as I find them.

I've been intrigued by the way trees and plants look with this spectrum, but I've not discovered what this looks like with water! Oh, I must look into that. I hope I get to see the other posts you make.

Ah yea, I agree. It has to do with the chlorophyll in the plants. They reflect back the infrared so the plant does not dry out. Absorbing every color but green, hence why we see them as green.
Since they reflect back the infrared its super bright looking.

You really know your stuff, @solominer :) Thank you so much for explaining that in more detail - I didn't know that.
So you have a specialized camera for this photography? Did you have it customized?

Ah yeah it makes you look at plants differently knowing that, thank you I read alot online. I think my partner @activate.alpha taught me that about why plants are green.
Yes its customized, I bought it used from a friend as an ordinary camera and then sent it to LifePixel in Washington to have it converted to a full spectrum camera.

Cool, it can take up to a month to get it back in my experience after shipping it to them. I hear kolari vision is pretty good too if they are closer to you.
Yep, it does open up a whole new world.
