Infrared Photography Single – Looking up at an old tree
In this single, I really love the tree branch structure. It looks so random and sprawling, though I suspect there are mathematical formulas in the shapes of this tree.
When im referring to is the Fibonacci sequence, something scientists, mathematicians and even traders of stocks know about. This sequence of numbers occur in many places of life. It happens in patterns in the stock market, spiral galaxies have this pattern, hurricanes and a sunflower has a spiral effect to it in appearance, this is a fibonacci sequence. Also some succulents have this pattern as well in this leaf placement.
Trees do as well, how branches split off from the trunk many times follow the Fibonacci sequence. And I feel this tree may have a pattern to it as well, as random as it appears there is usually a pattern somewhere inside.

I take pictures with a special camera. Its a Mirrorless DSLR that has been modified by Life Pixel to see light in other wavelengths. This allows my camera to see light in the Infrared [IR] around 1300 NM wavelength, through the visual spectrum and into the Ultraviolet A and B wavelengths roughly into the 300 NM wavelength.
I carry many filters on me to make the photos you see in my blog, these filters screw on my lens and help me isolate certain wavelengths for certain scenes. These filters can be IR / UV pass-through filters to assist me get a natural photo taking out the UV and IR light. Or I may use a Infrared pass-through filter capture just IR light. I can do the same with UV light as well, though I need some better filters which they can cost a few hundred dollars for true Ultraviolet pass through filters. So for right now I have B + W 403 bandpass filters that still allow some IR light in, due to their cheaper material.
There are also exotic glasses made of sapphire and germanium I am open to working with to replace my silica glass hot mirror with a material that allows even longer wavelengths of infrared to enter my cameras sensor. Special sensors, lenses and filters of that material would be needed as well, so it would be a big project but one that may give some even more unique photography results.
Addresses below to help me buy better camera equipment and support me to travel to locations to do photo and video and overall great blogs in new places. I would be happy to list some of the contributors in my posts for donations that help me along the way.

thanks @nevlu123 for the animation


























Interesting perspective for this photo. Lots to take in! :)
@nat-expressions thanks alot, yeah trees use math all the time.. kinda weird.
