Now those are quite something Chris - love the colours, softness (yet sharp) and the clouds - great choice of shots

Thanks John, the conditions were not ideal for IR as a mixed blue sky with white clouds would be the best.
Hopefuly with more attempts, I can improve on the shots, need to set a custom wb and tweak my procesing for a more uniform output.
Im told IR is great for nudes etc, will try have at some time 😊

I know blue skies and white clouds is the normal target for IR, but I really like both images especially the second one. Just lovely.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

The second photo is a stunner
A scene from a fairytale
Magnificent composition that works so well
Anybody and everybody would be memorized with the draw in
