Description
lol I most the time copy my words incase something happen. I forgot to did it this time and lost what I wrote I hate that and over the size of the thumbnail too.
I turn off my lights and just turn on the UV lighting here. I then put on the timer and place the camera looking up and me looking down and you see what it got. I did focus the camera on something about the same distiane before I did this. Focus with the real lights on. You can not see under the blacklight.
Thanks for the IM I will set the asa to 50 because of the grainy look to this. Here I must have it on 50asa. I was testing both setting and I do have images in brightsunlight too.
I did look at a lot of IR images on the net. I saw them in bright sun light too. This film was made for spy work for low lighting so let see what low lighting will do I got some ideals here by just this one film I used.
I know every one takes photos of flowers and sunsets and sunrises which is good. I not against that. But try to see what you can do to shoot it diff to show what you trying to think of the image of a senset. Never saw a photo of the sun setting underwater. That be a diff pov. If I gave you a Ideal please use it to shoot one underwater to see how it come out. I like to know. May be I thinking crazy but I like to see what the limits are. I know I just started in photos and know nothing. Lol Tom know a lot more and others in the forum. Where they learn all this I do not know. Just go to the forum and read the knowlegde of these people; it mind blowing.
What I wrote the first time is alongt the same lines.
Thanks for looking and comments

You Look Great Jock And This Capture Is Superb!!!
I did not crop the image. I scan it and it was just like this. It was the last image I shot with the film so I think that is what happen here but I like it.
excellent work Jock. I hope your wife is progressing well
And I like it greatly too, Jock. I do not understand the technical stuff. Not a bother for me ;-) I know a good shot when I see one. Nice to see you too!! Tom is such a special man. Well, I think so. Hugs for all your family. Na night. Di.
Hi Jocko, you look pretty comfortable sitting there. (You wouldn't have a beer somewhere, would you?) Actually you can get in big trouble with the government sitting in the dark, only they are allowed to do that! Or, is it that they try and keep all of us in the dark most all of the time? With you camera, UV lights and paints, and now your IR film and filters, you can take just about any pictures that are possible, and I think that is super!!!
You looks like a business man Jocko! That's a beautiful picture :)
Hello my dear friend, Very Beautiful artwork. Excellent!! Congratulations!!
Seeing what others do in photography gives me ideas too. I can't remember if it was you or someone else using a mono-pod to hold the camera above every ones head. Well, I've shot pictures over and under bridges using the monopod. I thought it was a great idea. Some of the things you do raises my interest. Keep on doing what you do. I like it! Aloha
Intersting POV...make me think about a setting sun in underwater.
I don't know Jocko, it seems the IR film has killed the neon light FX...nice contrast though ! ~Cheers~
It may have killed it but at lest I know what the UV Lighting hits the IR film will pick up on it
Nice interesting concept, Jocko!
here too, it's the light and dark .. I just really like shots like this with tons of contrast.
Superb self portrait, Jocko, like the B&W effect, Bravo!
I just got a ideal on how to do the underwater shots of a sun set lol. got to buy a underwater camer now[cost about $7]. put it on a tripod and stick the camera underwater so you do not get wet. lol just hope these photo come out ok. well have them in a few weeks I hope. Water here is not clear
Very interesting and I like the way you try seeing things differently.
I didn't know your name is "ME" lol great fun here !
I agree :))
A fabulous BW photography with a real fascinating light and camera setting!!!
It turned out real good jock!:)
Oh yes, excellent self portrait and nice composition and idea in IR !!! :)
Excellent and fantastic self portrait, my friend!!! Great POV and mood!!!
Most excellent image !
Great pic Jock! Sounds like you are having a great time experimenting! (:
Looks really cool Jock ,Not a bad looking fellow either :)
Lol, it's happened to me more than once :) Nicely artistic POV and shot of yourself. You look wonderful here!
oh for an underwater camera and a still sea and i would love to take that sunset photo too ;) I was under the impression that UV lamps emmitted UV light, and that IR film recorded IR light. Now correct me if i am wrong, but isnt UV light at completely the other end of the visible spectrum from IR light? I think you need to take either the UV lamp or the IR film back to the manufacturer and complain ;) Keep up the "on the fringe" ideas, its the best medicine for an active brain :)
UV and IR are at the opposite ends of the scale, so theoretically a UV light will not show up on IR film. Cool shot, and neat experiments!
excellent self portrait *******************
not seen many people use ir film since the seventies. interesting concept. if with uv. try useing firefox i rarely ever lose text in forum pistings etc. hitting back button its useally still there.
