A little explanation is in order for these photos. These are your basic photos of the sun reflecting off the Willamette River. Except that they were taken using a B+W 403 ultraviolet filter, so that we're mostly capturing ultraviolet wavelengths plus a little infrared presumably mixed in. To take them, I stood on the Steel Bridge facing the sun, and pointed the camera down at the light glinting off the river (which was near-blindingly bright in visible light), and then I had just enough light to get a few non-blurry photos.
I've stared at them long enough now that I no longer have any idea whether they're kind of cool or completely lame. If you think they suck, well, sorry. You won't get those couple seconds of your life back, but at least you didn't pay anything to see the photos. So there's that, at least.
