Infrared: Villa Pamphili in Rome

On a Sunday afternoon in September, we walked with Yana through the villa Doria Pamphili. Last year, we arranged for Yana a photo shoot in one of the largest parks in Rome, and this time decided to take a look at this beautiful place with an infrared filter.

Since in the infrared range green turns white, and there are a lot of greens in the villa, the effect turned out to be magical. A feature of infrared shooting is that even during the day, the shutter speeds with which you have to work will be measured in seconds. So in addition to the IR filter itself, at least you need a good tripod and the ability to determine the exposure pair. For those interested in photography at the bottom of each picture, I have given shooting options, and those who want to combine a vacation in Rome with photography lessons, I invite you to my author’s courses.

Shooting options: 24 mm, ISO 400, Aperture 2, Shutter speed 4 sec

Italian pine pines, one of the symbols of Rome, look especially cool in the IR spectrum.

Shooting options: 24 mm, ISO 800, Aperture 10, Shutter speed 30 sec

Shooting options: 24 mm, ISO 800, Aperture 8, Shutter speed 10 sec

Shooting options: 24 mm, ISO 3200, Aperture 5, Shutter speed 1 sec

That is why science and many other areas of activity were considered primordially masculine, where the fair sex was not recommended to intervene. Nevertheless, history knows women who have had a very tangible influence both on the course of the history of their countries and of the whole world.
