Thank you, I will look at Lifepixel, and refer my friends’ young(20 something) son, the very talented sketch artist, to do the same. I guess I just should have referred him to the Hogg. RJM

Yes, SuperflyTNT, it is true that not everyone, such as yourself, will perceive the ambiguity, but I’m sufficiently confident in my language skills to know that some will. You need to carefully re-read precisely what I actually wrote. Besides, I only specified this ambiguity AFTER the OP’s rude reply.

By the way, did you actually bother to read my post of 08:45 hours? It was a comment to another member’s point. I find it fascinating that you exclusively construe the tone of this to not "come off as friendly advice".

Again, that post was in the context of lauding one of User ID's points. In reading a limited sample of your posts, I find that your prose appears to consist of a disproportionately high frequency of "tonal problems." But please don’t feel that the following is necessarily directed at you exclusively, but there are at least a few members who will find a way to "read into", i.e. unjustifiably extrapolate just about anything written as being done so in a snarky and/or rude and/or snide manner. The quality of "never giving the benefit of the doubt" does not exist in such people. So you tell me, please, are you one of them? Please do not bother replying if you’re unable to answer a simple Yes or No.

Thank you for your insightful comment!

More to the point, it’s far from clear that "they know everything there is to know about IR photography." But they, at this time, do have a nice selection of free articles on the subject. There are other useful websites with plenty of such articles, and members can endlessly add them in this thread. However, please remember, as was written in the initial post, that this Topic solicited some basic guidance on behalf of a sketch artist who is the son of a "friend" of the OP.

So THIS RESPONSE is the FIRST thing you think of AFTER I made two useful posts? Your reply is unnecessarily nasty and rude. I’m trying to help you, NOT attack you! I guess it never occurred to you that within the sentence, "A friend of mines' son is just a terrific sketch artist, and thinks that a IR digital camera might be something USEFUL to him ... ," it is not absolutely clear, at least to me, WHO the subject of the verb "thinks" is. Are you referring to your friend or his son? I’m not criticizing the potential ambiguity you created; I was simply suggesting that you resolve it either directly or indirectly. I guess that’s asking too much of you.

But go ahead, donald, be that way. Just interpret every picky little word as a slight. OBVIOUSLY, it never occurred to you that I was attempting to get you to flesh out more details about this sketch artist, as User ID did make at least one good point.

So when you are wrong you attack the person who points that out. Sounds like a politician. Isn't it easier to say "Whoops, you're right, sorry about that" Is that a guy thing or just a person who has very low self-confidence?

Why, thank you! Yes, I do have the time. I guess you’re completely unaware of Social Isolation mandates still in effect in many states. But of course, you appear to be ignorant and in denial about a number of things. Hmm, sounds like the leader of a certain major world power. Friend of yours? This all makes you a real "special case." Get a clue ... and a life. Farewell.

I agree with you completely. The OP was wrong to attack me.

[quote=JohnSwanda]I have loved IR photography for many years, starting with B&W IR film. I didn't care for the color IR film, because it was just too far out, with the red skies.

These are ALL fabulous! I'd like to try....

User name of E Bay seller is : irconversion . Seems mostly what he sells are inexpensive ir cameras that he converted . Real helpful & great seller . Note to this forum : Sorry if this comes across as an endorsement or advertisement . Not meant to be nor do I know guy . Figured if some folx here want to check out IR on the cheap then this guy is a great source . P.S. - The nastiness & feuding in this topic is uncalled for and put-offish to a new user as I am .

It's great if you like post processing - there's a lot.

Yeah, I do a lot of PP. I try to make many of my photos abstract. And the colors in IR (not a red sky) would fit in with my type of art-photogaphy.
