IR Effect on Spring Landscapes

Aspire

Thanks to Pezpix :bow for inspiring me to fiddle in Elements and try to simulate IR effect, here are some photos I have taken over the last few days. All photos were;

1/ Shot in RAW

2/ Levels slightly adjusted in Canon Digital Photo Pro then converted to JPEG

3/ Converted to simulate IR effect in Photoshop Elements 6;

Open Adjust Colour - Hue Saturation & increase green to +50 & Yellow to +40
Go to Convert to Black & White
Click IR Effect Style
Move Blue Adjustment to -90
Red to -43 & Click ok

4/ If you want a soft glow effect I opened the AutoFX Plugin Dreamy Photo & applied the glow effect & adjusted it to suit.

I am not able to get a converted camera at present so am happy with what I managed, next option is to purchase a Hoya r72 IR filter & see what I can do with that. These images are no where near as impressive as the others on here but I hope they please someone, thanks for looking & thanks again to Pezpix!!

Could have fooled me! Great work making IRs

I think it's equally awesome that Dgrinners inspire other Dgrinners :ivar

(Now if I could get off of my lazy butt I'd try this, too)

Thanks it's fun and certainly makes any mundane lanscape into something mysterious! Since I have been on this forum I have gathered so many tips and ideas, it's really awesome and the quality of work is amazing by everyone on here
