Thanks for commenting, y'all. Your comments are much appreciated. This is an IR shot of near-sunset in 'my' forest. IR has a different reaction with lighting that would normally produce flare in lenses. Also, it tends to lose definition in greens, making them look OOF sometimes. IR can take a sort of mundane pic into an unusual and sometimes wild place. I liked the way this one reacted to the partial lighting. Cheers, -mikey

I can't get over how the IR effects convert the pine needles into fluff and a surreal sense of scale. Neat Mikey. -tv

This works better.........I reckon.

Is that the sun or the moon? Either way, the eerie mood to this works. And COAmature is right, you do get a lot of use out of that forest.

Mikey, I like that a lot of this is just blurred away to help the mood. John
