assignment: infrared/UV photography

we were recently introduced to the Fuji IS Pro camera. 
used with a set of Peca filters, visible light is blocked to create images that show different areas of the electromagnetic spectrum not seen by the human eye.

i spent some time in the studio this week with the Fuji camera using a 60mm Nikon lens...
the above image is a daisy without any filters on the lens.

because i'd never photographed infrared/UV images before, i thought i'd go through all the filters to test and see what each one does...
(the last image is a "visible light" filter, which is why it looks so similar to the original)


*other than cropping, no editing was done to these images - what you see is what was taken in camera*

  2. thanks, laurie!!! ...and by the way, setting up with this camera in the studio was helpful because of the controlled environment... i'd definitely suggest it while you're playing around with the fuji =)
