Thanks Eric, I will have to be careful not to forget the "other" camera. LOL...I just think there will be so many cool things to shoot in IR.

Here's a quickie I shot today, with a few adjustments in PS. I'm just beginning to play with this.

So Tess,

What'cha shootin' with?

When beginning with IR go for strong, bright sunlight over most of the image, this will help the contrast pop. As you get some experience you will be able to pre-visualize in IR and introduce more shadow. Use spot metering over the brightest part of your image and lock exposure there and then recompose and shoot. This will keep you blowing out highlights, an ever present danger with IR.

Also remember if it is not a good composition in visible light, it won't look good in IR either. When I first started I thought the novelty of IR would make every image a keeper. I went from 1 in 10 keeper ratio of visible light to 1 in 100 keeper rate with IR at the start. I'm back to 1 in 10 keepers with IR, but it took a while.

Don't get frustrated, just keep at it; you will get better.

Now lets see some more images.

Jerry,

What camera are you shooting with in IR?

Try more bright sunlight on the front of your subjects, IR responds well to that.

I got a Nikon D70 converted about a month ago. It wasn't very bright when I took that shot, but I wanted something to experiment with. The possibilities in PS seem unlimited.

Yes fun with Photoshop is unlimitited, I can sit for hours until I can't see straight! Anyway here is a picture I took on Sunday, a lovely bright sunny morning, we took the dogs to out local park on the river and I just clicked around. This was a nice shot with reflections, but look at it now.

It looks like a sepia toned inversion, very interesting. You are only limited by your imagination.

Post more soon,
