We have been able to guess what an infrared picture might look like, grass and trees are very light, rocks and lichens are dark, but until you actually made the photograph you really don't know what the actual picture will look like. This picture was made of the underside of a tree. The result is very nice and was unexpected. The colours are "false" in that they were not formed from visiable light, but from different parts of the infrared spectrum.
