Infrared photography, one of the most fascinating photographic techniques, is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year. The technique enables us to capture light that is invisible to the human eye. The first infrared photograph was taken by Professor Robert Williams Wood and was published in the Royal Photographic Society Journal in 1910 as an illustration for his paper.
Infrared photography became popular in 1960s, when several artists experimented with it to achieve some unusual and eye-catching effects. Jimi Hendrix, Frank Zappa and Donovan released albums with infrared photos on the covers.
In this post, we present breathtaking infrared photography to inspire and amaze you. Every photograph is linked to the photographer’s website. Visit their portfolios for further inspiration.
