About	“Heart’s mood revealed ?” I'm not playing around with software here. This is not exactly Infrared either but a "Thermal Image". That means white and red colors represent high temperatures, dark colors (violet) represent low temperatures. Myself, the photographer, I have a rather warm face. It’s a pleasure to show you that part of me :-) My camera is cold and lifeless, but that will not mean I do not like it. The guy with the sunglasses shows to have "cold eyes" maybe a spy or a gangster :-) The girl in the middle has a cold nose for some unknown reason and the girl with the shawl at the right side is probably not such heart-warming as she normally looks like with a visible red area at the heart's place. Be warned ! Can Thermal Imaging as science maybe also reveal the mood of somebody’s heart ? Normal photography or IR will never reveal these aspects with the power of a “love and lie” detector. A few months ago I captured this pic in the Science Museum in London with my standard Lumix bridge camera directly from a screen display. The actual TI camera not capturing light but recording “heat” was directed to the audience (including the photographer) standing in front of the screen. I used some slight cropping but not any other pre- or post processing to get this final color image. I hope you like it as an illustration of physical imaging beyond the visual spectrum, but transformed to a visible white-red-violet scale for visualization. So many things that happen, people and events can not be observed by the human eye, but with some technical help we can.

Bisogna stare molto attenti con Te!!!
Chi sa, che altro tipo di camere stai usando??(scherzo naturalmente).
Non si puo vedere tutto, per fortuna. Qualche parte bisogna tenere per se stesso.
Ogni giorno, grazie alle varie esperienze , ci svegliamo diversi.
abbracci
