Infrared
The part of the electromagnetic spectrum between visible red and microwave. Infrared is light not seen by the human eye.
Digital Infrared
In order to digitally photograph infrared light, using a DSLR without external filters, the filter on the camera’s sensor, which normally filters out infrared, must be replaced with a filter that will let the infrared light pass through. This allows the photographs to be taken without an external filter and the slow shutter speeds required in film infrared.
These photos were taken with a DSLR where the internal filter was replaced by an R72 type filter, which in addition to infrared, lets part of the visible spectrum through, thereby achieving the color cast seen in these photos.
In these photographs, it is the reflected infrared light that gives organic greens their “snow” like appearance while retaining all detail.
