[UV] Cinquefoil or Potentilla flower: Baader-U vs Jupiter-U filter for reflected UV ultraviolet photography

Again more about that new Jupiter-U filter of mine. Also those shots were taken at the wonderfully blossoming Hermannshof, Weinheim, Germany. This time it is about a yellow Potentilla flower.

Potentilla has a very strong UV reflection around 365nm, so much that it actually overpowers all around.

Stay tuned, more will follow on that fascinating subject...
