Dazzling Images of Glowing Flowers<br />

Photographed With Ultraviolet-Induced<br />

Visible Fluorescence<br />

28-year-old photographer Craig Burrows photographs plants and<br />

flowers using a type a photography called UVIVF or “ultraviolet-induced<br />

visible fluorescence.” If you haven’t heard of it, that’s not a<br />

surprise, as it is a relatively unknown process which brings out the<br />

glowing fluoresce in plant matter through the use of high-intensity UV<br />

lights.<br />

Typically UV is removed through a camera’s lens, however Burrows<br />

photographs with a 365nm LED light which is passed through a filter<br />

to transmit only UV and infrared light. The dazzling plant life Burrows’<br />

photographs absorbs this UV light and releases visible light at<br />

different wavelengths, which allows him to capture colors far more<br />

vivid than those seen in a typical viewing condition.
