SKU: 200111
Infrared photograph of palm trees at Myakka River State Park in Florida. All cameras have an internal filter that blocks most, if not all, infrared light from passing through it. Because the infrared blocking filter in the camera still allows a very small amount of infrared light to trickle through, the camera can still take infrared
photographs if a visible light blocking filter is placed on the camera lens. Thus, the camera can still make use of the trickle of infrared allowed through.
Because so little light enters the camera, a tripod and very long exposure must be used, up to 10 minutes in length. The advantage of working this way is that the long exposures allows the artist to creatively capture the movement ofher subjects – such as trees and grass blowing in the wind. This is the alternative reality of infrared.
