For some, infrared photography has been just as elusive and mysterious. While capturing this invisible light has been possible for years, the process has been steeped in tedium, expense and unpredictable results. Because of these reasons, many photographers have only dipped their toes in this beautiful medium, or avoided it altogether. The digital photography revolution has rendered this unique art form much more accessible, and simpler, than in the analog photography days.Cyrill Harnischmacher's Digital Infrared Photograp. "Digital Infrared Photography" according to W. Geoffrey McAuliffe. This is a beautifully produced book but that is the best I can say about it. To be fair I have been doing infrared photography with film for many years. If you are completely new to infrared photography this is a good introduction. However, if you know anything about the subject you will be very disappointed. There is very little, perhaps nothing, in this book that cannot be discovered with a quick search of internet resources on the subject. I can honestly say that I was shocked at the lack of new information but again, I am not new to infrared or to digital photography.
This beautifully designed and illustrated book is the perfect companion for the aspiring photographer wanting to explore new photographic territories.. This compact guide to infrared photography shows the beauty of infrared imagery, but also teaches how to shoot these images with your digital camera. The book provides the basic theoretical background, some information on cameras, filters and equipment, and lots of guidance on how to do infrared photography. Since as far back as the 1960 's artists have experimented with analog infrared photography, as seen on the album covers of Jimi Hendrix and Frank Zappa. The infrared part of the light spectrum is outside the range of what the human eye can see, but with a digital camera, we are able to record only this "invisible light " while blocking the "visible " part. To record the "invisible light " has always been an intriguing and fascinating experiment. But as we enter the digital age, new equipment and technology has opened up the exciting world of infrared photography to all. The results are often unusual, yet beautiful, renderings of otherwise fairly common scenes
