Full moon rising - infrared/monochrome.

As seen in the mountains of southern New Mexico.

In near-IR the blue sky is rather dark, and trees/vegetation are almost white. Near-IR cuts through the haze, so the moon looks almost as if there is no atmosphere. (The trees are about 1/4 mile, 400 meters away...so they are slightly out of focus, but the moon is sharp.)

Camera is a modified Sony a6300, 400mm lens, 850 nanometers long pass IR filter. Image slightly cropped from entire frame.
