Infra-red Films Help London Newsmen in Black-out

These remarkable pictures were taken in London a few weeks ago by a press photo- grapher using infra-red plates, because the taking of photo- graphs by ordinary flashlight is forbidden in war-time.

The picture at the left, show- ing Mr Wendell Willkie and Miss Ellen Wilkinson, Parlin- mentary Secretary to the Minis- 'try of Home Security was taken with an extra-rapid infra-red plate, with an exposure of one- twentieth of a second.

The lower picture was taken outside a Piccadilly tube stu- tion. It was so dark that the girl shown had to use her torch going down the stairs.

Immense possibilities in the field of night photography are opened by the use of infra-red films, as it is possible in dark- ness to hide the fact that a pic- ture is being taken. `
