Garden Tree InfraRed

I was experimenting this morning to discover which trees in our garden are most effected by an infra red capture. This is an image of our Stag horn Sumas Tree with a Copper Beech to the right. I expected the leaves of the staghorn to go quite white as they are a light tree colour but was surprised to see that even the copper beech leaves are quite a light grey. At this time of year when the trees are absorbing chlorophyll infrareds tend to predominate.
