Ultraviolet Photography Reveals the Unexpected Fluorescence of Flowers

To create each dazzling depiction, Burrows imaginatively employs a filtered 365nm LED light and a special lens (found, he explains, in kits typically used for crime scene investigation). This Technicolor treatment brings out the flower's natural fluorescence, as it only conveys ultraviolet and infrared light. This results in an ethereal aesthetic, making everything from pollen and petals to stamens and stems spectacularly glow and glisten.
