Tree Reflections

Explore Interestingness: June 26, 2007

I miss Infrared photography. The problem with it is, it takes a lot of preparation so I can't do it on socials. I had to make a special one-man trip to get these shots.

Today was way hot! Not in a "paris hilton" way but literally, it was more than 90 degrees! I knew it would be that high but I forgot how it felt like so I hiked 1.5+ miles to get this shot and I had nothing to eat or drink! If you think 1.5 miles is nothing, try it uphill with 10lbs (I think) of equipment on your back and shoulders!

I couldn't concentrate (I was getting hypoglycemic) but I had to get some shots before I hiked another 1.5miles going back to my truck. I want to go back there when I'm better prepared. Besides, there weren't any clouds which would have enhanced the shots even more.

Please view here!!! :)

Thank you! Carmen, it has limited applications but it works great on the right image. The filter is expensive but worth it in my opinion. :)

Beautiful shot. The IR gives such a cool effect. Looks like it should be cold not 90 - lol. I have a nice sunny picture of a lighthouse that was taken when it was below 0 degrees that looks like summer :-)

psilver (silverph) says:

Thank you everyone for you comments and faves! My near heat stroke was worth it! LOL! I'll be back there again next week for a different version.

@hogo's - You need a special filter like the Hoya R72 infrared filter, a sturdy tripod and a lot of patience. :) (oh and Photoshop knowledge too for post processing.)
