Ultraviolet Photography (UV Photography)

Flowers


Ivan Mikšík



In the case of photography of flowers we can see that blooms looking as monochromatic have another appearance at UV light. We can recognize another designs, shades, patterns that can be very pleasing for insects and therefore atract their attention. The most common situation is darker center of bloom (with pollen and stigma) but some more interesting patterns can occur.
