Digital BW, The Print

Gavin:

I think your actions and the effects they create are very good, they just 
don't look like infrared to me. I have been shooting with a 20D with  the IR 
cutoff filter removed and replaced with clear. This makes the camera very 
sensitive to IR. There are several different filters I use (such as Hoya 
R72, 25 red, etc) depending what type of look I want to achieve. Different 
factors such as time of day, angle of light, skin type or even the overall 
health of plants that are in the image can create totally different look. 
Please don't misunderstand me, your actions are a very attractive way to 
process the images you have used as examples. They just lack the subtle 
light and tonal difference of IR. Not everything can be done in PS.

Hi All,

  I worked my fingers to the bone :) trying to perfect my Photoshop infrared 
and toning actions. And experimental BW.

  I'm also giving away two of my actions form you to play with. I'd be very 
interested in your opinions. Thanks in advance.
