Digital BW, The Print

Hi all,
 
I was wondering if it's really necessary to use filters at all: I can't
believe it's not possible to start from a color image in Photoshop and
simulate infrared in the B&W conversion - lighten green, darken blue...
Shouldn't be so hard...

In my experience with Kodak and Konica infrared films, evergreen trees emit
much less infrared radiation than deciduous trees. They might be a bit
brighter than on regular BW film, but not white like your leaf droppers.

But then I usually use an orange filter, as I don't go for an intense
effect, and that's with film, so YMMV.
