I was picking up some signals in this area.

 

[Red_desert]

Then some kind of gold signal, the orange.

 

[johnu33301]

Thats interesting I got alot of hits in that same area with my IR camera!! What type hits were they?

 

[johnu33301]

Humm thats right were an old dump used to be alot of old parts garbage and alot of other things!!! Do you get any cave hits?? Thanks in advance!!!!!!!!

 

[Red_desert]

The red circle with the smaller inside, would be a hit if looking for a cave. I actually did wonder if that might be a possibility. Red is my color for a variety of signals, could be almost anything, even a dump site. The orange is the color of my choice for gold signals which includes gold veins, stronger raw gold pockets, gold coin/bars. Of course, if the strongest gold signal in the map which is marked by orange, is raw gold deposits, you might just have some gold dust. A search can be made to identify raw gold only, but I like to use light yellow to mark those signals. If you pick up signals on the IR camera, check it out.

 

[johnu33301]

I will and I will post the IR pics! Thanks!!

Tried dowsing an enlarged picture on my monitor and was getting mixed signals...guess I'll need to replace the rabbit ears...

 

[johnu33301]

Just got some pics of the areas marked with the X, I took 2 one of the area reg and one with IR do you guys see anything?

 

[johnu33301]

Heres some more from the backyard, little background my house was built in 1900... And the shawnee were in this area...

Also in the very back I found a tree that I think has markings on it, the IR pics had a nice hit... What do you all think with Dowsing it?

 

[Red_desert]

Yes. Shawnee was the tribe Tecumseh and his brother The Prophet were of, the ones who started the War of 1812.

 

[Red_desert]

Is that a carving on the tree?

 

[johnu33301]

I think it is, thats why I posted it... Normally these trees have marks from bugs etc but this one has markings that are different! And when I took the IR of it, It really got me curious! Do you pickup on anything?

 

[Red_desert]

We finally got some snow here, today was out clearing the driveway. Haven't had the time to check dowsing any yet. My IR filter arrived today. I tried it while snowed hard, only viewed the shot in my camera (not downloaded). Probably because the low visible light level, look more like the IR adapter w/ filter pics you posted. What looks to me a rock, enlarged it a little. White circle, carving at top might be a turtle, except can't see all of it.

 

[Red_desert]

You did mention a dump site in there. Some stuff showed up in this pic. can't tell for sure, but though this was the photo with the rock. White circles, must be old stuff or else trace silver or gold in the ground, would also check the rocks if any.

 

[Red_desert]

Wondering now if all that blue in the ground (below the circles) is from a mineral source.....that would be neat if IR could be used for prospecting.

 

[johnu33301]

This pic is not with the dump site it further back! I'll have to do some digging!! Yes it can be used for prospecting, just gotta figure out exactly how to use it.

 

[Red_desert]

That box shaped one is interesting, in the upper right corner of the last pic (which is cropped), think it looks to large to be the frame of an outdoor light. Started testing my IR filter today. Was snowing out again. Had to correct the exposure of light metering setting, add +2 stops to get the clearest photos. Then if the viewfinder isn't covered, the IR capabilities don't kick in. Snow scenes in normal visible light photography,, ofter need close to 2 extra stops adjustment. Lots of green vegetation does the opposite, may cause overexposure. Roofs of some houses had bright patches of orange across them, even though snow covered. It was overcast, photos still were a little dark, snow had some orange to it in areas. Found the best way to hold camera steady. Put fingers around left side of camera, thumb over left edge of viewfinder, then hand against to cover viewfinder. Right hand fingers under bottom of camera and lens, thumb to press shutter. Need to rest either left or right arm against something.

 

[johnu33301]

oh yeah you should pickup a tripod stand because you have to be very still or it will smear... Also make sure the sun is always behind ou when you shoot a pic.. Also make sure the lense is focused with a reg pic before you switch to IR...

 

[Red_desert]

Ok, I have a good tripod, but the viewfinder would have to be covered, even with the timer. I'm used to taking A-DEP photos without a tripod. Like in the desert at night in Arizona, would put the camera bag on the car roof. Then hold camera steady using both hands on it. You can't just stand there to take IR photos. I'll use both hands, prop one or arm against the wall, side window if indoors shooting at the outside view. Can't see anything in the viewfinder, it does work doing that, to set camera on something, look into viewfinder as normal....still the other method I described above works better. The IR photo above, enlarged it slightly and cropped down more. Just left of the rock looks like a couple of animal figurines. I don't think dead leaves could stand out like that, would be nice if they turned out to be rocks carved.
