Covered Bridge, Lenape Park, in infrared

I recently started exploring infrared photography. I just had one of my older digital cameras, a Canon PowerShot G9, still a very capable camera, converted for infrared photography. In film days, we used infrared film for shots like this. But now with digital cameras, it requires a modified camera sensor for the most efficient recording of infrared light. I used a company in Massachusetts, Digital Silver Imaging, to convert my G9.

It was after 8 PM, almost dark, and in light rain when I took this photo from my car window (a drive-by shooting?) — definitely not ideal conditions, but still got a pretty nice result. I find infrared photography a fascinating medium, so you can expect to see more of Perkasie in infrared in future posts.
