As I continue working through some of my infrared photography images, I am really enjoying this ‘alternate’ part of the spectrum. As I mentioned in last week’s post on ‘Creative Light Experiments‘, I am still learning (which will never stop).
Here’s this week’s image in the longer end of the spectrum…

This shot is part of my set of experimental images that I shot to get a better understanding of how different materials will appear with a 720nm camera conversion. The stone of the bridge and the guard rail look fairly unaffected. As I processed the sky with a red/blue channel swap, it appears normal to our eyes. The green leaves are most affected in this treatment.
Some of the other experiments to try include playing with the White Balance in ACR. That will definitely happen during this week!
In other news, I am sending in a second camera to be converted. As I use mirrorless for all my ‘regular light’ shooting, my Canon 5D MkIII will be converted. I’ve selected 590nm for the filter for this conversion, so that I have two different parts of the spectrum. I’m looking forward to the next set of explorations!
