Day off today and woke up to encounter a unique phenomenon...SUN!
Decided to have a quick trip over to Rivington to try out my newly aquired IR-converted K20.
Very much a learning curve, but these are a few from today, all with the Sigma 10-20...

In all, an enjoyable couple of hours and well worth the climb up!

IR has a unique look of its own, but you need excellent underlying images as well, and you've certainly achieved that here.

Best regards, John

Some really striking shots here, a great result for the first time out with your modded K20.
