Infrared Research

Infrared photography is an opportunity to explore a new world, an unseen world. Our eyes literally cannot see IR light. Therefore it is an unseen world. It's different from what we are accustomed to seeing.

IR photography started in the early 20th century. It became useful during WWI, it showed stark distinctions between vegetation and buildings. Which identified potential enemy targets such as camouflaged munitions factories and other key sites. They are now used for outdoor photography to bring out the colours that we cannot see.

Filters are used together with infrared sensitive film or sensors "in camera effects" can be obtained. Colour infrared film have 3 sensitive layers. They reproduce infrared as red, red as green, and green as blue. All 3 layers are sensitive to blue so they must be used with a yellow filter.

Erik Johansson

About Page Recap


Erik Johansson is a full time photographer who captures pictures and shows the ideas of it. He works on many projects mostly personal and commissioned but also some street illusions. Erik makes his projects seem as realistic as possible.

3 images from his work


I chose this image because I think it is beautiful and it look real. It seems like he's letting the boats free from the framed picture into the real world. I think it's interesting.

This picture is a complete illusion and it catches my attention. Again it looks real as if Erik is actually standing on top of the building looking down. Which is why i chose this picture. 
What it actually is-




The woman in this picture is painting the setting how she wants it to be. It shows how she is bringing the photo to life. It seems simple but its not and the picture gets you thinking. Which is why i chose it.

Self portrait project

I chose to put this picture on my blog because I like the angle of it. I like the bright colours as well. 

  I like this photo because of the focus on the grass. I also like how i could edit the colour of the background which made the picture more appealing.

I chose this picture because i like the setting. I like my position and the lighting. I also like how i edited the picture.

self portrait


I chose this picture because i like the intensity in his eyes. He is looking right at you and you can't help but to stare in his eyes because its the main focus of the photo. You can tell so much by just staring at a persons eyes. 


I chose this photo because it tells you about the girl. I think it shows how there a positive and negative factors in her personality. But her smiling shows how she's ok with that and she knows who she is. Which is why i like this photo. She's covering half of her face to maybe show how there is much more to her than what is in the photo.


I chose this photo because you can look at this in many different ways. The man has 3 other peoples pictures on his face. I think it shows how there are many different sides to a person. Since the lightning of the photo is dark it bring on a depressing effect. the other half of his face is completely dark to maybe show how that is only half of who he is.
