Infrared monochrome: This shot of the lake in Kelana Jaya was taken using a Cokin 007 filter and then converted to black and white.
This means that your digital camera actually captures light well beyond the spectrum of human vision, including light on both extremes of the spectrum, namely infrared and ultraviolet as well.
However, being able to capture ultraviolet and infrared isn’t actually desirable when you’re shooting a regular photo – images tend to look either hazy or have weird colour casts if the camera sensor is allowed to capture these extremes in the spectrum.
