I agree. I do find that there is a sense of mystery about IR shots,
particularly those taken in winter with no leaves on the tree. With the
light foliage that the method produces in warmer months, the effect may
be different.

Hi!
I set a new personal record for filter extravagance and bought an
77mm R72 for my DA 12-24/4. Shot a little pond this morning. It's at
12mm, f11, 4 second exposure.

Paul this is beautiful yet there is some unsettling quality about
it... The word "liveless" comes to mind. Not as derogatory term, but
rather as a description of what I feel when looking at your recent IR
work. It seems that IR filtration makes the light so unusual for
regular/plain human eye that the outcome seems devoid of life...
I wonder if you think similarly or it is just my (sick) mind...
