There were many old trees, with unique patterns or growth on them. I think its due to the lake water level rising and falling over the years giving the trees more dynamic growth.
Walking around Beard Spring lake was a great bird watching and listening experience. Alot of water foul all over the water, though staying far enough out of our range of the bows we carry.
Using my 720 nanometer Infrared passthrough filter I captured the grass and shrubs around this tree, with an interesting knot at the base of it. Looks like the core of the tree is exposed. The water is a ruddy yellow orange color due to the near visible light being captured at the near end of the infrared spectrum.

I changed my filter to a Ultraviolet and Infrared pass through glass, you can see how the color of the water changed. As UV is reflected differently than IR.
With the recent rains, the lichen has activated and is working hard to adsorb water and sunlight. You can see bright patches of it on the trees found around this outcropping of land.

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.
