Infrared Reflection

In front of our apartment there is an artificial lake. The water is often sitting, with little or no circulation. Therefore the water is filled with pound organisms, blue and green algae and other nasty stuff. Photographing something like that would not be fun at all. Worth mentioning that reflection won't occur in such murky water. Capturing the same scene in infrared, can reveal things that are normally hidden.
This island has beautiful reflection in this invisible spectrum. I know the trees are not as white as they should be, because I messed up with white balance, but still is far better than a color picture of the same scene.
This is the last from IR series for now. Hope you enjoy it.

Another lovely IR, Amir. As Rebecca says, the reflection is stunning--it adds a whole new dimension to the shot. Great work.

This is a nice series. The clouds are wonderful. If the trees were white, It would have get lost in the clouds. Nice job.

Thanks for visiting. I really appreciate it that you looked through a few of my photos and for that warm comment. Thanks :). Its funny because some people think of me going into photography but in fact I am heading up the medical sciences.
I just like the natural feeling of the picture here. It is very zen like. Well done!
