Digital Infrared Photography: Photographing Flowers

You will learn how to choose the ideal lighting and color elements to accommodate an infrared scene. In bright sunlight, Tony photographs a pond, and green lily pads surrounding a bright violet flower. With the digital infrared format, measuring light should be precise. Tony suggests bracketing your compositions until you get the right one.

In post-production, you might want to use software editing tools to add the infrared glow associated with traditional film.
