In my country food was rationed, you would wait in endless queues for hours just to get 1/4 of a bread. There was not much other than bread, milk and some vegetables (meat was rare). If you did not have a job, the state would take you and send you to a crazy big project of the state where you would probably die (work camp). If you had different oppinions about politics, you were basically captured, tortured and then killed. Every second neighbour was an informer for the state, no one to trust. Maybe your country was much better, but I can’t understant how you can praise that. I love the ideology of socialism, but USSR was a horrible implementation of that.

I was born in an ex-USSR country. You probably just miss being young, not the actual regime. It was objectively horrible.

You have no idea how people lived there…

I believe it is generated with AI

Sure. First of all you need to convert a camera to be able to capture infrared. That is usually done by removing a filter installed right next to the sensor. Then you can use different filters on your lens to get different effects. The most common one is the '“Wood effect”: basically all plants reflect a lot of infrared from the sun and get a kind of glow. In this picture I used a red filter to capture visible light on the red channel and infrared light on the blue and green channels. Then I swapped the blue and red chamnel to get the “aerochrome look”. It can be overwhelming at first, but once you get going on this topic it’s quite simple.

That is “true IR” i have some filters ranging from 720nm to 920nm, but the trick with this pic is to get a red filter, so the red channel gets visibel light and the blue and green channel get infrared light. It’s quite cool 😁

Thank you so much! 😁

It’a actually a film stock. I believe it was developed with the US military to make it easier to spot camouflage in aerial photography, as it didn’t reflect as much infrared compared to real trees 😁

Infrared glow combined with the inability to focus on infinity and pink :D

It is trying to mimic the legendary Kodak Aerochrome, too bad it is gone :)

Maybe it makes people realize they can push back against the decisions of politicians, it’s a democracy after all.

Oracle?

There was a nice movie on this premisis. In time

Why not?

The tought police will get you next

This is amazing!

Photography. Film was so advanced, having a layer for each major colour, every film stock has a different feeling. The only downside was cost, but you only took a picture when you were sure it is a good picture. Now we have tons of digital garbage because we take 100 pictures at once.
