I tried my first IR shot - didnt have a bright sun - mostly no sun at all - someone must have anticipated I was trying my new filter

Hi Suvendra, I see that you took the plunge and went for it. Looking at this image it looks as if you are shooting into the sun, if so this does not work very well in IR, because when shooting IR you are only recording what infrared is being reflected so you need the sun behind or to the side of you.

Thanks for the info Barry. Yes, this was shot facing the sun. The trees didn't even turn white

Hi Suvendra, just been looking at your website, I like your monochrome and nightscape shots, although bigger images would have been nice.

I appreciate your looking into my gallery, Barry. That is actually pretty old - I didn't get a chance to update that in past year or so. Planning to create a new one when I have time!
