What is Infrared Photography? [Infographic] by SonnarGauss

SonnarGauss has recieved a lot of questions about infrared photography.
Since a proper explanation involves some rather difficult-to-convey concepts,
he created this Infographic!
Hopefully this will also inspire other photographers to give infrared photography a try!

Best view  full size!

:iconr72: Like infrared photos? 
SonnarGauss is an admin over at r72,
the largest and oldest infrared photography group on DeviantART! 
Also, the day of this post marks the
13th anniversary of the founding of r72,
so head over and wish the group a happy 13th!

Some infrared photography from SonnarGauss's gallery:

Hello fellow IR photographers. 

Although February is (at least on the northern hemisphere) not so ideal for IR photography, 
we received quite a few submissions this month. 
Nevertheless, I have selected only very few works in order 
to showcase those images which really stand out. Here they are:

Two classical black & white landscape photographs by our founder MichiLauke:

The Gate III... by MichiLauke

Clouds IR... by MichiLauke


A landscape shot with very bold colors, as often seen in the works of bamboomix:

Lonely by bamboomix


A glamorous high-key IR portrait by robpolder:

White Dream by robpolder


eprowe has given us this interesting shot with a strong urbex touch:

Goffs General Store I by eprowe


This shot by vw1956, which is part of his IR calendar, is striking due to its composition:

February 2016 by vw1956


And from mIkeschwaRz we received this powerful high-contrast black & white photograph:





That's it for February. 
I hope you're all doing fine, and don't forget to vote for your favorite picture in our poll: 
r72.deviantart.com/journal/pol…


Best wishes,
Argolith
