[UV] Dianthus flower: 340nm Jupiter-U vs Baader-U for reflected UV ultraviolet photography

Again more about that new Jupiter-U filter of mine. Also those shots were taken today at the wonderfully blossoming Hermannshof, Weinheim, Germany. This is about Dianthus ("Coronation") and its specific UV reflectance.

All triptychs are presented VIS left, Baader-U middle, Jupiter-U right:

Dianthus plumarius ("Carnation"):


another Dianthus type:


Overview, again different ones:


The Jupiter-U filter reveals quite a bit more details than the longer wave Baader-U filter obviously.

Stay tuned, more will follow on that fascinating subject...

[UV] more on Baader-U vs 340nm Jupiter-U filter for short wave reflected UV (2)

All triptychs are presented VIS left, Baader-U middle, Jupiter-U right:

Hemerocallis xx ("Day Lilly"):


Dictamnus albus 'purpureus' ("burning Bush"):


Dianthus xx ("Coronation"):


The former two images are about similar, but the latter one shows some significant difference in the UV reflectance patterns in my opinion.


Stay tuned, more will follow on that fascinating subject...
