OT - Some InfraRed fun this morning

This morning I had some fun with my IR converted RebelXT. I really like the uniqueness of the IR look and whenever I use that camera I kick myself for not using it more often.

A few I converted to straight black and white but the others I left colored.

Enjoy.

The contrast range looks amazing. Have you printed anything from that camera? Any of those shots would be a wallhanger. By the way- where'd you have the conversion done?
 
I haven't yet but I really need to. I need to order a couple prints this week for another project and I might have to slip a few of these in.

I did the conversion myself (not for the faint of heart) but the filter that I'm using has a couple of tiny scratches in it. I really can't go above f/8 or they show up. It was really more of an experiment than any thing. I might end up sending it off to Lifepixel.com to have a better quality conversion done.

Very cool. As much sun as we have here, I need to look into IR options. I like the colored versions better myself, but nice work either way. And nice job of the tasteful, non-obtrusive watermark!
 
The flowers with the bees are actually very bright orange with yellow and black centers. It's interesting to me that the bees look basically the same.

Thanks for looking!
