the technique of channel mixing at this level is my absolute favorite effect. this is still one of my all time favorite IR shots. super contrasts of false color. great job! -john

I guess West Tennessee infrared landscape shots with a D70 and the 18-70 are good for a 6.4 egh?;-) Mine (Piece & Quiet) was 6.4108, so you edged me out (deservedly so). Great shot!

Lovely IR. I love the composition of the trees and the play of their shadows. Wish the clouds could have been a bit larger and a little higher and farther left. But just a nit pick.

Interesting coloring here. Infrared? (or somekind of variant, thereof?) It's surreal, yet calming. I also like the composition with the dominant tree in the foreground on the right

really nice IR image...the sky is great and the tones are wonderful...the crop on the right doesn't look right to me, but that's minor
