To record the "invisible light " has always been an intriguing and fascinating experiment. The infrared part of the light spectrum is outside the range of what the human eye can see; but with a digital camera; we are able to record only this "invisible light " while blocking the "visible " part. The results are often unusual; yet beautiful; renderings of otherwise fairly common scenes.Since as far back as the 1960 s artists have experimented with analog infrared photography; as seen on the album covers of Jimi Hendrix and Frank Zappa. But as we enter the digital age; new equipment and technology has opened up the exciting world of infrared photography to all.This compact guide to infrared photography shows the beauty of infrared imagery; but also teaches how to shoot these images with your digital camera. The book provides the basic theoretical background; some information on cameras; filters and equipment; and lots of guidance on how to do infrared photography.This beautifully designed and illustrated book is the perfect companion for the aspiring photographer wanting to explore new photographic territories.

I must say I was a little disappointed when I tried to go see Possum Nose and couldnt find access after reading the description.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Very Cool if You Live in NOVABy Charles CainI really enjoyed this book. Its not heavy reading; to be sure; but its quite entertaining; and I found myself saying "wow" or "interesting" throughout. Another refreshing aspect - it was even-handed and generally agenda free when discussing Virginias slave history. Im not sure it would make much sense to those who arent familiar with Northern Virginia.1 of 3 people found the following review helpful. BizarreBy LincolnEverything from space aliens to Quakers. Not really a history.Parts of it were boring; just a list of bridges.
