Infrared photography is a relatively new pursuit that I have been dabbling with. In fact, it is about six months ago that I had my old Canon Powershot G5 modified to shoot near infrared photos.
I have found shooting infrared to be a totally different experience. It has been a very rewarding one.
Now I have selected a gallery of some of my favourite shots, which can be found at https://www.rehmet.alt.za/photos/infrared.
Black and white infrared photography lends itself either to reproduction of very strong contrasts, or to very dreamy landscapes. I tend to find myself favouring the former. Since most haze is in the blue section of the light spectrum, shooting in infrared also tends to cut out a lot of undesirable haze.
Now all I need is to modify a SLR for infrared use. That will probably have to wait.
