Infrared: Landscape
I find that using only the infra-red part of the spectrum adds a new and often dynamic perspective to images, especially landscapes where the photosynthesis in green foliage throws off a lot of infra-red energy.
These portfolios contain a range of images illustrating the different impact of using infra-red on a variety of landscape subjects -- from Bavarian palace gardens and baroque churches to Golden Gate Park in San Francisco and Pinnacles National Monument. As you can see, in many instances the impact from using only the infra-red part of the spectrum is quite dramatic. When processing a digital infrared image it's possible to get 'false colors' rather than the usual red cast which can give a very different dimension to the scene -- for some of the images here I've included 'false color' images as well as the black and white ones.
Other examples of using only the infrared part of the spectrum can be seen in my Infrared: Industrial Landscapes and Infrared: Trees portfolios.
These photos were taken using a modified Canon DSLR such that it's sensor is only sensitive to the infra-red part of the spectrum.
