Bought a Hoya R72 filter off of ebay and took these shots last week. A bit of processing in PS (no color added. I did use Channel Mixer to swap some colors but that's it)

    frame
    awesome IR shots. I really like the second and 3rd shots. I think the second shot needs a bit of perspective adjustment and rotating though. what frame are you using?
