Infrared photography is about what the human eye can’t seen, and this photography requires constant experimentation and a willingness to fail. I am learning more and more about the light that the camera can see but I cannot see.

Today, as the sun set behind the Rose of Sharon bush in our yard, I got on the other side of the bush, and the camera saw the light in these flowers, which are actually purple to my eye, but filled with light in reality, my eyes can’t see this by themselves.

Maria called them angel wings, and that hit me right away, of course, the wings of angels, dancing their unseen dancing, singing in the whispers of the unseen. This camera always tells the truth, even when I can’t see it.
