For what it's worth, my experimentation is ending up in one of these collections: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/collections/72157627107116082/ Mostly this one: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/collections/72157606110993706/ And somebody said that with the marque it was a jame the trees weren't blue instead of magenta so here's a slight tweak: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/9559693947/in/set-72157635074852031 > > [email protected] wrote: > >Message: 12 > >Date: Wed, 21 Aug 2013 00:53:52 -0700 > >From: Larry Colen<[email protected]> > >To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List<[email protected]> > >Subject: More infrared experimentation, clouds > >Message-ID:<[email protected]> > >Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii > > > >I don't know if anybody is actually interested in seeing my experimentation > >as I learn how to use my IR converted camera.
