Just got a RM72 infra red filter
with help from 'Nnnnsic' i got it working

shot at Pier 2 Walsh Bay
set the camera to manual, focused the scene, used matrix metering, auto whitebalance, 4 seconds, f/2.8 ISO100 then set the camaera to 10 second countdown,
stuck the IR filter on
i got a magenta and black toned image. PP in photoshop: greyscale then colour balanced it
result:

if anyone knows how to get colour results shown in the following thread i would like to know how, as my original image consisted of virtually no colour tones apart from magenta to black.

Like the first one Wendell

Hey mate,
I also like the the first one a lot too. You have a thing for lights don't you mate (the third shot hehe)...well done though seriously, this would look great printed and framed, especially with the 1800

Seems your experiments were a success

Love the tree lights in the third image. Definitely from a different perspective Keep up the great work!

That first image is great.

Your shots are fine but remember that to get a really good representation of IR it works best with landscapes (i.e. nature) - cityscapes do not show the full effect of IR

I guess the first shot is all about Location Location Location.

i just noticed too that IR produces a high contrast image that can later translate into a well balanced B+W image, i can't get the same contrast in a standard black and white shot, so i think i will be using IR to get great high contrast b+W shots rather than using it to capture white trees

Geoff I do have a inkling for lights, i am after a certain aesthetic of tone and colour which i get from night shots.

Thankyou everyone for your comments
