Going Wide In Infrared Photography

A pair of Beisa Oryx photographed in infrared
Its quite evident by now that the unique effect of infrared can help create some stunning and very interesting landscape photos. So while keeping this uniqueness in mind, put down that telephoto lens used to shoot those closeup animal portraits and try going for something alittle wider to capture more of the natural environment. 

The above photo of the two beisa oryx walking out of a wooded area was captured at 45mm using the Nikon 18-55mm kit lens, which i find sufficiently wide enough to use in most cases. Going wider here helped me incorporate more of the beautiful background elements such as the trees, grass, skies, branches and alittle water which are all the hallmarks of a pleasant infrared photograph. 

Best regards,

The Unique Looking Guitar Fish

Guitar Fish resting on the sea bed One of the most interesting characteristics about the guitar fish is its unique body shape. It seemingly looks like a cross between a shark and a ray - with its flattened ray like head yet it has a long shark like body with dorsal fins - but this fish is actually a classification of its own and has about 50 subspecies.  The guitar fish prefers to remain tranquil on the sea bed, partly covering itself with sand to camouflage itself for any unsuspecting prey such as crabs or small fish that may come past it. Reaching sizes of approximately two meters in length, they are quite docile so can easily be approached by underwater photographers.
