Impressions from the flight from Stuttgart to Florence, although most of the time the only thing to see were clouds. (Pictures taken in infrared.)

Somewhere over Italy, the cloud cover opens up a little.

Impressions in infrared from my archive of travel photographs:

Lysefjord. NRG infrared photograph, i.e. the infrared image is encoded in the red channel, whereas green and blue channels contain the red and green channels of the image in the visible spectrum (see
here, 'false-colour'). Vegetation appears red and can be differentiated against the rocks. There is still snow on the mountains at the horizon.
