Some vines growing around this region are as thick as small tree trunks, they do not start off that size but grow over many years to be become massive vines. They snake their way up trees and into the canopy to get to the unobstructed sunlight.

This vine appeared to have started right next to the crown of the tree and moved directly up the tree, without twisting around it as it goes. Many vines must twist as they grow otherwise they would be knocked off during a storm. Others have little appendages that stick to the bark.

It must be way up in the tree tops, at the ground level where I stood I could not see where it ended up in the tree tops.

It appears to have loosely wrapped itself as it grew half way up the tree, disappearing as it passes my view. Since the vines does not have any leaves on it on the lower parts of the plant its probably way up there, and im guessing at the top of the tree getting that unobstructed light.

I take pictures with a special camera. Its a Mirrorless DSLR that has been modified by Life Pixel to see light in other wavelengths. This allows my camera to see light in the Infrared [IR] around 1300 NM wavelength, through the visual spectrum and into the Ultraviolet A and B wavelengths roughly into the 300 NM wavelength.

I carry many filters on me to make the photos you see in my blog, these filters screw on my lens and help me isolate certain wavelengths for certain scenes. These filters can be IR / UV pass-through filters to assist me get a natural photo taking out the UV and IR light. Or I may use a Infrared pass-through filter capture just IR light. I can do the same with UV light as well, though I need some better filters which they can cost a few hundred dollars for true Ultraviolet pass through filters. So for right now I have B + W 403 bandpass filters that still allow some IR light in, due to their cheaper material.

There are also exotic glasses made of sapphire and germanium I am open to working with to replace my silica glass hot mirror with a material that allows even longer wavelengths of infrared to enter my cameras sensor. Special sensors, lenses and filters of that material would be needed as well, so it would be a big project but one that may give some even more unique photography results.
