Mosaic landscape (720nm infrared)

More towards the end of a long infrared safari, already overcast so no direct sunlight, therefore the foliage / plants are not shining too heavily. But the IR characteristic is still there.

I like how the fields form kind of a mosaic pattern, looking different depending on the vegetation or the soil. I was once there with my 80-200mm AI-S (which is nice for IR when operated carefully) and discovered a distinct pattern in one of the fields, but only the IR spectrum made it visible. Wonder what that is about. Maybe there was once a construction (drainage?), due to its clearly man-made shape..

 

This is a 8:5 crop from a equirectangular projection consisting of 33 individual photos, 22508 x 10680px, ~240,4MP down to ~72MP.
