For IR images, the color channels must be swapped to obtain a blue sky. Depending on the model, the white balance must also be adjusted afterwards. This applies…

Here is my infrared setup for spring and summer. Now that everything is sprouting and blooming, it’s the perfect time to go outside. It’s not only an IR…
I am trying my hand at ultraviolet photography this spring and summer. I bought a special lens for it – the Kuribayashi 35mm, respectively a clone that supposedly…
It works! The DB940 filter now also fits my favorite lens – the Nikon 50mm f/1.8. Since the diameter of the filter is very small even for the…
Now I had some sun and time to test the DB940. I combined it with a dark sepia filter from Lee (probably “Chocolate”) and got wonderful results, especially…
Here’s another filter from Midwest Optics that might be of particular interest to fans of obscure IR false-color styles: The DB940. It is particularly suitable for color palettes…
Every now and then I receive e-mails with questions about IR photography. A few days ago I received such an e-mail from a photographer from Holland. He wanted…
This is going to be a rather image-heavy post. But before we get to the photos, let me briefly say what it’s all about. Once again, it’s about…
Repeatedly I have concluded that CCD sensors are superior to CMOS, especially when it comes to special false-color IR styles. With normal, “straight-forward” IR like 720nm or monochrome,…
A reader of my blog, like me, has been using specialized IR and color filters and full spectrum cameras to create a false color look with blue trees.…
Like probably others, my passion for IR photography started with the Aerochrome pictures of Richard Mosse. Mosse is an Irish photographer who uses IR, UV and multispectral techniques…
This is a short post. It is intended to show what tools I use to convert cameras to full spectrum. Actually it is quite simple. A soldering iron…
I decided to upgrade my Nikon D700 from full spectrum to 720nm. One problem I had was blur. If you put a filter back in, the plane of…
Today over lunch time I explored the surroundings of Zollikofen in the canton of Bern. Of course I found the big church or rather the temple of the…
Some winter Aerochrome photos… I know it’s a bit tedious when I keep changing the best postproduction variation. But for me, this one really seems to work best…
I have this new idea that sounds like a lot of work. Inspiration came from a movie called Nope, which I finally got around to watching yesterday. A…
Autumn almost always offers wonderful conditions for special IR photos, thanks to the diverse colors in the vegetation. I was recently at the Aare near Reichenbach in Bern…
Would you like to own a TB550/660/850 filter from Midwest Optical? Coincidentally, I sell three of them. All are unused and in the original packaging. The TB550/660/850 can…
Ultraviolet photography is very exciting, I’ve written about it in previous posts. And finally I have also found an approach to it. But it took many attempts and…
The blue trees have kept me busy for some time. Whenever I went out, I used this ingenious filter combination to take photos. Now I’ve gone back to…
