Default InfraRed Photography

Ok then

Just bought my first IR filter and I'm trying this thing out.

I think IR photos have a really cool surrealistic effect, and I'll try to play a lot with it.

I took this photo just today, and I'm just beginning to familiarize with the whole IR process.

Tell me what you think about it, would you?

Hi Jan ... looks very nice ... is that a glare/reflection in the middle of your photo?

I love how the location affect the whole shot, how the island just stands out.
Thanks for sharing.

This is really cool. I have an IR filter on my "to buy" list as I think these types of shots are just amazing. Thanks for sharing.

Great IR shot, Jan! It almost looks like a tilt/shift shot! Very well conceived! Thanks for sharing.

Very nice. Great work on composition, focusing, and post-processing! But the dreaded EF-S 18-55 IR hotspot is killing it. See if you can pick up another lens that's better for infrared work. The EF 50mm f/1.8 II is ok for infrared work, although you won't have the fun of wide angle with it, it'll sing when you stop it down past f/8.
