I am experimenting and enjoying it. Now that the older Olympus is converted I can take that camera with me all day and take photos and swap to the hot mirror which makes it a regular camera.
Instead I've taken my two Olympus cameras in a shoulder bag and shot with regular light and IR light. The Oly cameras are super light and not cumbersome like my Nikon is.
I have left the prime 30mm lens on the newer Oly and had some fun with it while walking the creek and checking the forest fence.
The snake is a custom made tiny sculpture by an artists who made custom ornaments for me years ago of Morris. I just love the color and detail of this little coiled snake!
I want the creek to be spectacular but it is so heavily shaded that the IR light spectrum does show nice bright foliage but not much else.
In the yard I took two shots of the trees that will be coming down in a bit. My favorite trees that have incredible smelling flowers in the beginning of each June.
I will miss them, but don't want them on top of the house.
Here is a shot I took from the neighbor's garden back looking at our place.
I took it in IR but added the pink arrows to the trees that are to be taken down.
Things will look a bit different after this job is done. Looks like I'll be piling wood for a while this fall!
However, not having these trees fall on buildings is a better idea than worrying every time we get a storm in the summer or an ice storm in the winter.
Two pines are not pictured here. They are up behind the house.

You will be really busy stacking all that wood. The only tree I know of that smells really good in June is a Tilia cordata or Linden. The flowers are awesome:) You are having fun with your camera! (I thought that sssnake was real...and I am going...in Wisconsin?? :)
Linden trees are my other favorite trees! They blossom around the 4th of July here and have such a beautiful shape to them. I have to consider something with deep roots and replant a tree further back that won't get as tall as these did.
