Infrared Photography – Stream winding through forest
I believe this is the stream where water is collected to take up the near by wagon road. The water looks very clean, and has a lot of rocks and sand that help to filter it. Though I did not try any of the water I think I could trust it after boiling it. I did not see much animal life in the water, though it was December and they are probably hiding from the cold and windy days during this time of year.

The stream winds through the forest, trees probably drink a lot of the water as it probably flows year around. I love how it snakes through the trees and has a very satisfying look to it.
Living in Georgia, and at the foot of the large mountains that go through Tennessee, North Carolina and South Carolina, even further. I enjoy finding many streams, feeding from the mountains high up. It would seem there is water just about everywhere at the foot of the Appalachians.
I take pictures with a special camera. Its a Mirrorless DSLR that has been modified by Life Pixel to see light in other wavelengths. This allows my camera to see light in the Infrared [IR] around 1300 NM wavelength, through the visual spectrum and into the Ultraviolet A and B wavelengths roughly into the 300 NM wavelength.
I carry many filters on me to make the photos you see in my blog, these filters screw on my lens and help me isolate certain wavelengths for certain scenes. These filters can be IR / UV pass-through filters to assist me get a natural photo taking out the UV and IR light. Or I may use a Infrared pass-through filter capture just IR light. I can do the same with UV light as well, though I need some better filters which they can cost a few hundred dollars for true Ultraviolet pass through filters. So for right now I have B + W 403 bandpass filters that still allow some IR light in, due to their cheaper material.
There are also exotic glasses made of sapphire and germanium I am open to working with to replace my silica glass hot mirror with a material that allows even longer wavelengths of infrared to enter my cameras sensor. Special sensors, lenses and filters of that material would be needed as well, so it would be a big project but one that may give some even more unique photography results.
Addresses below to help me buy better camera equipment and support me to travel to locations to do photo and video and overall great blogs in new places. I would be happy to list some of the contributors in my posts for donations that help me along the way.
