Genre Mix. #Abandoned #Infrared #photography

These were all shot on an old Sony a55 camera that I converted by hand to an IR camera. I disassembled the a55, removed the sensor and then took out the hot glass filter. A small plate of glass that filters UV, IR and some other light frequencies as well as protects the raw sensor. I hand cut a new filter from a 450nm screw on IR filter I had. It wasn't perfect, but it worked. I have a professionally converted a7r now. Will post those later.

@Linkshaender Oh man thank you. As much of a PITA as it is to write an addition 2000 chars per toot, I am happy to hear that they are appreciated.

@theexplorographer Will use them as an example how much more useful this is if it contains more than just "a chair shot in infrared"
(and I can improve my English 😉 )

@theexplorographer These are incredible. Thank you for sharing and describing the process. Also I’ll second the comment about loving your alt text! It’s so interesting to read how a photographer describes his photos.
