Infrared Still Photograhy

Sun, 23 Aug 2009 15:11:00 -0400

Everyone who has a nightvision capable camcorder knows that if you take it out in direct sunlight that the screen just goes white. Recently Blue Ridge Paranormal has been testing the idea of using an infrared filter to block out all of the visable light to allow your camera to work in nightvision during the daylight. Even a still camera without nightvision is capable of taking infrared photos, this was proved by Richard Liebeck in 2007 on a trip to Gettysburg PA.

He used a digital Kodak camera with a Hoya R-72 infrared filter and captured a photo on Triangular Field of what appears to be a civil war soldier in period clothing. On most digital cameras the photo will appear a deep purple color, you must take the photo and open it up with a photo editing program and transform the photo to grayscale, and if your program has an autofix program, this will usually make it much clearer. We recently purchased a Sony DSC-H50 that is a 9.1 mp digital camera with nightshot, with a filter the nightshot feature works even in direct sunlight and you do not get the purple color in your photo. You will still want to use your photo editing program to do the things we mentioned earlier. This same thing can be done with your camcorder by using a filter, you will need to determine the size filter size and experiment with different ones, there are filters from 720nm to over 1000nm. You must determine which one will work best for your camcorder in direct sunlight. We have found that R-72 seems to work best for still cameras.

I am sure by now you have seen Richard Liebecks photo he took on Triangular Field, the photo has generated over 40,000 hits. Some people claim the photo shows a tree or shrub, if you live in the Gettysburg area and would like to volunteer to email us some comparison photo's, we would love to see them. Then we can lay this dispute to rest.

Thanks!

Web Address Problem

Sun, 01 Jun 2008 22:54:47 -0400

Hello everyone, we have had some problems with the site in the last few days. The web address,blueridgeparanormalinvestigations.com is no longer us. We do not know what happened, it was supposed to renew each year. Somehow it did not and we lost the domain name. We immediately got a new address which is www.blueridgeparanormal.com . We have no control as to what may be shown on the old site. We want you to know that anything posted on there is not us.
