Breathe new life into your old cameras with this trick! Got an old stock DSLR that you've upgraded from and don't know what to do with it? Here's some ideas:
Near-Infrared Photography
Ultraviolet photography
Astrophotography
Sprites, Elves, and other TLE's, transient luminous events.
Very low-light photography
Use various filters to achieve this:
Near-Infrared filter. Daytime 'Psychedelic' or 'Heavenly' scenes.
CLS-CCD (For light pollution and astronomy)
Ultraviolet filter
I broke my Canon T3i a few months ago. The screen went into the drink. The actual drink. Like a drinking glass. While kayak camping up in Canada.
I replace the screen for just $35. But i take it a step further and breathe new life into this old camera by enhancing it for Astrophotography and Near Infrared Photography.

![Northern Lights over Minnesota - Labor Day 2019 September 2. [SHORTS] Aurora Borealis!
Overnight September 1st and the early hours of September 2nd 2019 I drove up to the North Dakota and Minnesota border area near Hallock, MN to capture Northern Lights that were triggered by a coronal hole in the sun! Space weather is awesome! Check out my aurora forecasting series which will be getting an update shortly. https://youtu.be/3goZG_YKlCw
