Image Caption: This color infrared view of Houston (29.5N, 95.0W) was taken with a dual camera mount. Compare this scene with STS048-78-034 for an analysis of the unique properties of each film type. Comparative tests such as this aids in determining the kinds of information unique to each film system and evaluates and compares photography taken through hazy atmospheres. Infrared film is best at penetrating haze, vegetation detection and producing a sharp image.
