Infrared glow combined with the inability to focus on infinity and pink :D

Can you elaborate on that?

I saw those photographs often and I don't quite get what is happening but I would love to do it myself.

Always reminds me of no mans sky planets.

Sure. First of all you need to convert a camera to be able to capture infrared. That is usually done by removing a filter installed right next to the sensor. Then you can use different filters on your lens to get different effects. The most common one is the '"Wood effect": basically all plants reflect a lot of infrared from the sun and get a kind of glow. In this picture I used a red filter to capture visible light on the red channel and infrared light on the blue and green channels. Then I swapped the blue and red chamnel to get the "aerochrome look". It can be overwhelming at first, but once you get going on this topic it's quite simple.

Looks like No Mans Sky planet

I was playing with IR back as a kid with modified webcam, but my photos were black and white. And leafs on the trees were always bright white... And dark veins on my hands were visible xD

That is "true IR" i have some filters ranging from 720nm to 920nm, but the trick with this pic is to get a red filter, so the red channel gets visibel light and the blue and green channel get infrared light. It's quite cool 😁

It is trying to mimic the legendary Kodak Aerochrome, too bad it is gone :)

The aerochrome!! Yes! I didnt realize it was an actual camera. I thought the effect was just called that :') it's so perfect

It'a actually a film stock. I believe it was developed with the US military to make it easier to spot camouflage in aerial photography, as it didn't reflect as much infrared compared to real trees 😁
