Infrared Alice
Infrared Alice, photo by Harold Davis. View this image larger.
This is a capture of Alice using a camera retrofitted to only shoot IR.
Rendition of colors (or black and whites in this case) is quite odd using IR and seems to depend on the light source—studio strobe lighting in this capture. If you look at my shots of Alice by visible light you’ll see that her eyes are light blue (not black as in the IR capture) and that her underwear is opaque black, not the slightly transparent taupe that her bra and panties appear to be under IR.
Some other infrared model shots: Infrared Portrait; Dream; Christianna.
There’s a section explaining black and white infrared (IR) photography in my forthcoming book Creative Black & White: Digital Photography Tips & Technques.
