Near-Infrared (850 nm) Pictures of the Nasca (Nazca) Lines in Peru


Recommended Posts

My youngest daughter and I recently took a trip to Peru. Along my Canon 6D, I took my modified Canon T1i so that I could take UV and IR pictures. For our flight over the Nasca Lines I built a bracket to hold the cameras side-by-side, and rigged them to fire simultaneously.

 

We flew on board a Cessna Grand Caravan, and the movements over the lines are quite brisk, so I wasn’t able to focus and tweak exposure. As such, I simply set focus to infinity, exposure to something that seemed reasonable, and hoped for the best. The only thing that I was not satisfied about is that I was not able to get good pictures from simultaneous shots. By the way, no aliens were spotted anywhere ;)

This must have been great fun to fly over and see.

 

This is a funny, big-footed, round-eyed fellow, isn't he?

 

I also liked the one with the big hands on your website.

 

Cool stuff!!
