Bridge over Sweetwater Creek - Ultraviolet and Infrared Photography
As I was traveling around this park, there was a large bridge spanning the creek. I already posted some infrared photos of this bridge, but had some UV/IR photos as well.
 Camera Model | Lumix GH3, modified by LifePixel for Full Spectrum |
|---|---|
 Lens | Olympus M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 12mm-50mm |
 Filter | B+W UV Black (403) Filter |
 Aperture | f/3.5 |
 Shutter Speed | 1/100 sec |
 Film Speed | 200 |
 Spectrum | Ultraviolet-A and Infrared (UVA and IR) |
 Wavelength | 320 to 385 nm and 750 nanometers |
 Location | Sweetwater Creek State Park Georgia USA. |
It was built less than ten years ago, as a massive flood wiped out the last one.
The old bridge remains in the water, covered by tons of silt and will probably stay in the creek for the time being.
Along the way I came across some trees that broke over, or got hit by lightning a long time ago.. Just their structures remain.
Many happy plants growing out over the water trying to get some of that sunlight.

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.

love these infrared pics, they are like walking into an alien universe.
@torico I agree, the photos that I get from this camera totally amaze me. I can't wait to take it to all new regions to see what else it can capture.

Oh yessss... I like this bridge too! :)
The first one definitely does it for me.... and that Royal Blue ink sky...
@ackhoo I like the pickets on the bridge, and that wood material they used. Yeah that sky is amazing in ultraviolet. I use a b + w 403 filter and the shots come out amazing with a good custom white balance.
