ORIGINAL: MaDomAura Hmm, how can I show my black light or UV tattoo? I will have to work on that one! MaDom Aura Silence is Golden but Duct tape is Silver. Finished going through my old notes... You will need to have a blacklight source and a UV filter to affix to the end of your camera lens. From there it's just a matter of experimentation with the balance of UV to ambient room lighting, "film ISOs", shutter speeds, aperture openings,... all the good stuff one goes through to perfect a still life photo. The blacklight will make your UV pigments pop into fluorescent visuals. The UV filter is needed so the UV light is filtered out before reaching the focal plane of the camera. Without the UV filter in place, the UV light from the blacklight may simply wash out the image. Have fun! :)
