You are correct. I shot almost 90% Infrared on the OBX trip with a 5D converted by another company called LDP out of NJ. I fine the images VERY pleasing and am curious to see how they sell compaired to my color and B&W stuff in the future.

This one is of the Live Oaks on the main walkway into Brookgreen Gardens. I have learned several tricks on getting better images with this body and am always looking at my subject matter "in a different light" now as I walk around. This has breathed new life into a camera body that I just hated, now I cannot put it down!

The Trees in the forground are in DEEP shade and the exposure was done to create a sence of deep contrast with the white leaves against the dark sky. The effect was created by the addition of a filter to the camera lens.

Canon 5D Infrared only body

f/11, 1/100s hand held.

BTW, my email is down till next week but you can see many more of my infrared work at: www.MarkHilliardAtelier.com

Lovely shot which will I suspect make a beautiful fine art print. Looks like several folks posting are going infra red with digital camera modifications - wonder when I will do it!?
Thanks for posting this image :) :)

I LIKE it!!! Way to see a neat shot & pull it off. Not having seen a color shot of this, I think I like the IR better than I would a color shot... Thanks for sharing!

Mark, After coming back for a second [or third] look, while I really like the trees, it's the road [path] that takes this one to another level for me. I don't think I noticed it the first time around.
