. . . what a rainbow looks like in false-color infrared, this is it. (And if anyone tells you that the 18-135mm Fuji zoom doesn't have a hotspot, you may point them to this picture as proof they're wrong.) Processing (in GIMP 2.10.10) was limited to auto white balance and red-blue channel swap.

Shot in infrared with a 50mm f2.8 EL-Nikkor on a focusing tube.

So here we have an infrared macro picture of a dandelion seedhead made with a 50mm f2.8 Nikkor enlarging lens on a helical focusing tube.

This one was shot with the sky as the background and processed a little more heavily.

I desaturated the cyan but otherwise this is an OOC jpeg.

Okay, I can't resist a flower with an insect in it, but this one was especially fun because it gave me an opportunity to try out the great new highlights/shadows sliders in GIMP 2.10.10. While I've obviously not refined my technique, I can say with certainty that all the petals were blown out in the OOC image, and a -75 at the highlight slider brought 'em back. Cool.

I got GIMP 2.10 today, which has many added color management features. The original was just a little too pastel for my liking. It's my hope to get some new GIMP skills.
