Several shining 'bulbs'.

"Several light bulbs."

This is a photo of acorns. I took this photo using a Nikon D7100, converted full-spectrum camera. The filter on the lens is Schott RG715.
For lighting - I used several different LEDs, that hung around.
Photo taken in the infrared, in total darkness.
So, I wanted to get a 'glow effect' for whole acorns in darkness, while the soft-green part of acorns has more glow.

Yevgenya,

Itself is already beautifully sounding name with poetics and texture.

So your presence is a pleasure for us, just one arrival!

In addition, your very first picture, suggests we are in for a series of treats!

The use of cameras modified to get selective access to different light frequencies is of great interest here. For example:


Dr Klaus Schmitt is a well know academic unraveling the views insects have of our world.

Jim Collum, a master with large format, scanning backs, infra red and alternative process currently photographs plants with in the infrared.

Bob Friedman makes great IR landscapes!

....and there is much more to discover here.

Your work with acorns is also unique and so adds much more that the one picture, as fascinating as it is.

I hope you will visit, enjoy and give feedback on these workers too! Thanks for your important and creative contribution.

Asher

Made me return for another long look!
