Infrared photography is becoming more popular and attractive among photographers. It opens up new possibilities and gives insight into a part of the electromagnetic spectrum invisible to the naked eye. Infrared photography is not a new invention, human aspiration for expanding its view beyond visual perception motivates scientists since the 17th century - inventions like microscope or telescope. Experiences with areas outside the visible spectrum of light, until recently, were inaccessible to the average photographer, but in today’s digital age, it becomes available to everyone. Capturing infrared photographs involves recording infrared radiation, invisible radiation that is a phenomenon beyond the visible light wavelength range 750-1200 nm. In conventional photography this technique is present, but never gained great popularity. Originally it served for military and scientific purposes. What photographers admire in capturing infrared photographs is related to strangeness of obtained images, effects inherent to this technique. However, most photographers stop here, finish their survey of infrared photography in the creative sense. This paper shows how mastering the techniques of shooting infrared photographs, and thereby acquired experience, is only the first step in the development of photographers’ creative way of thinking, which manifests itself through expert analysis and final obtained original photographs.
