Oct 20th, 2018 : UVIVF

What the hell is UVIVF? Ultraviolet-induced visible fluorescence.



Quote:
Each time I do a set of UVIVF photos, it starts with going out under the cover of darkness to snatch unsuspecting flowers growing around the neighborhood. I rarely know what to expect from a flower before I get it back to shoot. Some I think will dazzle end up flopping, and others I am surprised by their colors or light. Every one is a surprise!


Quote:
In the same way a tee-shirt blue glows under a black light, most organic material glows at least a little with UV stimulation and in all kinds of colors. To make the most of it, I make sure I’m working in the darkest environment I can and use a 365nm light so the camera can’t see the UV light.


If you’re into cameras he shows how to do a Sony A65 full spectrum IR conversion.
