Blue-red channel swap from the graveyard is the best imho - really good! Very inspiring for me!

I can see some haze in the pic esp. on the left side on the monitor I'm currently using which highly decreases fine details/microcontrast - without it it would even better. Did you maybe had a fingerprint or on your lens or filter? Or maybe it's UV haze/flaring caused by the chinese filter? Or mabye it's only the monitor here? Wink

I've never made false color infrared but I'm very interested in it. Which software did you use/how did you swap the channels?

EDIT: I've just recoginized that the fingerprint (or whatever) may have also caused the "yucky colour cast" in the other pic!

Glad you like it. The workflow is a little involved, but not too bad, if you want any further detail, please ask and I'll explain it as best I can.

I'm not sure if there was some mucky-ness, I'll clean the filter and the lens tomorrow in casethere is an offending fingerprint, grease spot or whatever. I don't like any of the Church ones much, I like the BW one of the graveyard most but the Blue-red swapped one is my second pick.

I just use Photoshop to swap the channels. I'll do some screen caps to show you how to do it if you like, easier than trying to explain in words.

The graveyard looks boring in normal colour, but you have made it interesting.
