My many thanks to all of the folks that expressed their likes, wonderment and wanting to learn more about this media known as IR (Infrared). I have posted two images of the same area captured about ten minutes apart and from a slightly different location. Dunstickin wanted to see the same image in it's natural state. PatAndre and a few others never tried any of this while others reminisced about some of the IR work they have done in the past. I am happy to see the interest in this medium pick up. I had posed a few IR images last year and they received a cool welcome. The explanation of how this works is pretty deep. Let me just explain some of the things that you can see in this comparison. The white areas in the mountains and fields are Aspen trees and healthy grass. The dark areas are Pine and Fur tees. Evergreen trees absorb IR light. Sadly those Pine and Fur trees in the foreground and in the small village of Platoro that are a dull gray are sick from Pine Beetle infestation and will not live more than two more years. If you would like to know more about IR imges feel free to PM me
