INVISIBLE EARTH

Description

This rock formation is evidence of Death Valley’s most violently explosive volcanic periods. The Miocene-aged formation is made up of cemented gravel, playa deposits, and volcanic debris, perhaps 5,000 feet (1500 m) thick. Chemical weathering & hydrothermal alteration cause the oxidation and other chemical reactions that produce the variety of colors displayed in this unique formation. These colors are caused by the oxidation of different metals, and I had always wondered how these already brilliant colors would look in a different light spectrum. I travelled here in search of a different perspective in I.R. I shot this image on my Sony A7riii converted to full spectrum infrared. Infrared, or “IR” photography, offers photographers of all abilities the opportunity to explore a new world – the world of the unseen. Why “unseen”? Because our eyes literally cannot see IR light, as it lies just beyond what is classified as the “visible” spectrum – that which human eyesight can detect.
