Swans - Lots Of Them
Isn't #3 fascinating. Great catch there, Steve. Especially when viewed large - nice capture! Just my opinion but a little manipulation of no.4 might produce a better image - the board and post at the top are slightly distracting - if you darkened (graduated filter effect?) that part and mayb...

Boats, Ships, Yachts etc.
love the detail in the clouds, really make it for me. Do you mind me asking what settings you use for this type of light ? Neil, I used 1 & 1/2 stop underexposure, 1/180th sec and IIRC still on my tripod, I took many shots, some with a Grad filter but when the sun went behind clouds or down fully ...

A camera, a headtorch, a bottle and a flower raided oot me garden
Been mulling this idea over for ages Finally pulled my finger out and went for it! Used a star filter, a diffuser and a bit of post processing.

Coastal Walking today.
Thank you David. This lens has been described as a great piece of engineering, or something like that. I can see why, internal focus, internal zoom, the elements, filter compatible, some FF at 16 to 18mm etc and sharpness everywhere. Not too heavy, AW resistance, Star rated. I've just got to hopef...

Coastal Walking today.
There's an interesting book by Joe Cornish, title 'First Light', subtitle 'A Landscape Photographer's Art'. For each of the main pictures, there's a second that he took of the same or similar subject in different light, time of day, weather etc.. Most importantly, he explains why he prefers the main...

My first stab at IR....
Got a Cokin IR filter after getting a shock at how much a conversion is! 260 quid plus vat.... Here are my first attempts and any tips or tricks will be massively abused!!!

My first stab at IR....
These look great to me IMHO, a much cheaper way to get into IR. No.3 is my favourite. :) Agreed - I've used a Hoya IR Filter a few times, not easy to get used to but you've already nailed your technique 8)

First shots with my IR Converted K20D
I'm for Number 1. Is the K20 full spectrum or set to a specific filter. I'd be interested to know what filter was used for these shots?

First shots with my IR Converted K20D
I'm for Number 1. Is the K20 full spectrum or set to a specific filter. I'd be interested to know what filter was used for these shots? I have the invoice from Advanced Camera Services for the work. The part description says a 720nm IR Filter.

I FECKING LOVE IR!!!
I called the guys who did the conversion on the K20D I have and they said it would be fine to update the firmware... and they were right!!! It cured the problem I had. WOWOWOWOWOW!!! This is just another level of B&W and way better than an IR filter! Went out this afternoon for a few hours ...

A local walk amongst the heather
Thank you both for your interesting comments. I do have a set of ND Grad filters, which I must confess to not using very often. Most of my landscape images are unplanned - I'll take a camera with me on a walk, but the walk is the main purpose in going out, rather than photography. At the same time, ...

IR White Balance Fannying
Ian allowed me to play with a couple of images so here they are. I use a free channel swap action download from Kolari so that was the first thing i did,worked ok with the bridge image not so good with landscape, the sky had odd colouration around bright clouds .With both i put back into Camera Raw...

.........just fiddling around, really. k5, 100mm. D FA Macro, Hoya R72 IR filter. Stack of 22 in Combine ZP. Elementa 11, converted to mono & bordered. What do you think.........? Roger.

Nice :D. And even nicer what clicked and seen big :D:D. Was it outdoors? I'm thinking that an IR filter means long exposure which means a good chance of movement in breeze even if clamped at the bottom. And yet it's a stack and it's sharp. Steve

Thanks Ian, LB & Steve. Taken indoors on the kitchen table, lit by diffused flash on full power to "get through" the dense red of the IR72 filter. Took some care judging the start & end points of the stack because of the focus-point difference with IR. Cheers, Roger.

IR and ND Filters
Interesting. I prefer the second 'with' shot (although I'm still not a fan of IR!). Guessing here at the reason for the apparently different lighting and assuming an ND reduces IR as well as visible light... The position of the clouds is much the same in both pictures so the time between shots mu...

IR and ND Filters
Interesting analysis, Steve. It just seems that perhaps the different lighting in foreground and background could be the effect of clouds moving over the sun, blocking the IR much more than the ND filter would? In the absence of 'expert' comment so far, we might have a better idea of the effects o...

Help! I have an IR addiction...
Some interesting photos in that set. But why do so many IR enthusiasts seem to be attracted to graveyards :o??? Does anyone know of a good therapist that can help me with my newly acquired IR addiction??? Get a UV-modified camera and a UV filter - you'll see the world in a different light :wink::...

New (to me) F series 24 - 50mm lens. First outing.
That last one is a superb skyscape :D. The top right corner seems a bit dark - was the sky really like that, is it a wide angle lens lens effect, was a polarising filter used (etc.)? It look like an interesting lens for APS-C, too, as well as full frame - a compact, light weight, short standard z...
