Very nice! Now I know why I get such thin negatives when I use my opaque filter - I need to use longer shutter speeds! Great job. What color were the stones? I'm surprised they were so light in your print. My IR cemetery shots usually depict dark stones, which are usually middle-gray, I'm assuming due to low infrared reflectance?

Thanks, Jim. That helped a great deal. I'm still a newbie to this IR stuff, and appreciate any IR tips. Thanks again, man.

Hi Andrew, cemeteries are a great venue for IR. I also really like the sepia treatment. Also, wanted to share a new technique I just figured out while trying to improve one of my IR's....
1. Create duplicate layer 2. Selecte Properties: Blend Mode = Multiply (Soft light can be fun to play with as well) 3. Opacity = 80% (but play around a lot to see diffferent looks) 4. Merge 5. Unsharp Mask 6. Very very slight Curves applied.
Here is a result (hope you don't mind)... I think it brings the focus down to the tombstones by adding a little more depth and contrast.

I love the infrared effect. I also like this composition better than the other cemetery picture of yours.

Another beauty! I love the contrast between the vastly varied tree shapes and the regimented rows of gravestones. And yet, the trunks of the trees are organized, somewhat.
I'd call this a successful experiment -- a beautiful one, too.

Nice work. I have been experimenting with infared also.

Very, very nice. I love the tone and the mood created by it as well as the subject. Nicely done.
