Full Spectrum Long Exposure Ultraviolet Fluorescence Photography #10: Blueberry Flowers Part 2

in #longexposurephotography6 years ago (edited)

While I had the blueberry stem attached to my structure for photography. I attempted to shine the blacklight more selectively up into the bell shaped flowers. Instead of the standard overhead look. I like how it shows off the pollen and you can see inside of the flower.

Taking a picture at the top of the stem you can see the pink collectors between the stem and flower. A pastel pink color seen with the full spectrum camera.

One of the bells got ripped off, probably by a Bumble Bee or Carpenter Bees as I call them. This damage can occur by nectar robbing by destroying the flower.

I like the sparkles on the blueberry flowers. Probably pollen carried on it by other pollinators.

Lastly a picture of the leaf and stem structure before cutting off a piece for photography.

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.
