All good Russ. Can see where you're coming from.
I'm possibly a little insulated where I live - Nobody really does IR much, and if they do, it is the usual false colour shot, often with a selection of trees beside a lake (which I find a little boring)
I bought the IR camera to expand my monos - and try to come up with something hopefully a bit different.
Of course in reality there is really nothing new under the sun - someone has always done it before....
Once the dust settles from the start of school & kids sport , I'll be hopefully getting back into landscapes, (both colour & mono/IR)
