Otherworldy Foliage

Infrared photography captures light wavelengths invisible to the human eye, transforming green foliage into a striking, snowy white or soft pink glow—known as the Wood Effect. The result is a dreamlike, high-contrast landscape where blue skies turn nearly black and water absorbs the light, appearing deep and inky. Use this technique when you want to inject a surreal, fantasy, or post-apocalyptic mood into standard natural scenes. It pairs exceptionally well with deciduous forests and water bodies. Avoid using it on subjects with little to no vegetation, as the effect relies heavily on chlorophyll reflection.
