I decided to try photographing dandelion clocks (the seed heads) using ultra-violet light. I tried 2 different methods: 1) Ultra-Violet photography (the camera recording the ultra violet light) and 2) Ultra-Violet fluorescence photography (the visible light fluorescing from the UV). Here are some of my results:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, just 1 image in UV. I still need to work on the technique for this – more research is required!:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
