Infrared Aerial Photo




















This infrared photo is a shot of the upper Mississippi River.  Infrared emulsion is more sensitive to wavelengths that the human eye cannot see.  The wavelengths are not truly red, but modified so that we may see them.  In certain situations, it may be easier to distinguish details using infrared as opposed to the same black and white photo.
