Digital Infrared Photography



You can take photos without visible light with most cameras. This is known as Digital Infrared Photography
Instead of registering visible light – that is green, red and blue – the camera records images made by invisible light, which is beyond red. Without sounding too ‘techy’, light that has longer wavelengths than ordinary red light.
Going infrared requires screwing a filter onto your lens. Blues turn almost black and green becomes a ghostly white.
