I've tried to create an infra red feel on this conversion. It's my first one so I don't know whether it works or not.

Hi Sandinista - from the grass point of view it works vor me but I remember IR pics with harder contrast - I think with some contrast it might work better

Thanks Axel, I've reworked the original with a levels adjustment and some dodge and burn. Take a look if you can clicky

Hi

I know nothing about IR photography so will not comment on that aspect - but I really like the dynamic feel of this image.

Hi Jim - I like the reworked version - btw - how did you try to achieve the effect - with plug-ins or by changing settings completely manually??

The kind of poor support of the K20D for IR photography is the only disadvantage with this camera I discovered so far (tried out some IR Filters from a friend - totally disaster ).

Thanks everyone, good to know I didn't make a complete horlicks of it and that the reworked image was an improvement. To answer your question specifically Axel, the conversion was manual in PSE9.

Hi jim,
It’s far from the IR sharpness and contrastness but you’ve got there someting original and deserving interest.
