This is AWESOME Amir - What a lovely effect that filter creates. I really like the angle that you've used here too.

Good shot Amir. Now you have me thinking, might need to get myself one of these IR filters!!!

Rebecca from Leicester, United Kingdom

Wow, Amir!! This is another absolutely fabulous piece!! Seriously, I can see this one as a large framed picture on display in a public hall. Really superb work you’ve done to get this absolutely fantastic POV and out-of-this-world effect. Wow, again!!

@Rebecca: I am really glad and thankful to you for your daily support. I really don't think either this picture or my photographic skills deserve such compliments. I do try my best and only post what are the best among few thousands of my collections.

I am always looking forward to your comments.

Bron from Canberra, Australia

This is very unusual, interesting colour Amir - could you explain what IR is for the uninitiated?

23 Sep 2007 7:06pm

@Bron: IR is an abbreviation for Infrared. Images taken at between 700 to about 950 nanometer of light spectrum, often invisible to naked eye. I have few shots taken with the same filter/technique that have more detailed description.

Here are some.

700 nm

Infrared Reflection
