I really dig this! Did you do the IR conversion yourself, or send it out/buy the camera that way?

I bought the camera already converted.

Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in infrared with a converted Canon camera in Orlando, Florida.

Time

It was near noon. Wanted the shadows and lighting to be perfect.

Lighting

The lighting was on a mostly sunny day. The contrast of colors when converted back to blues are beautiful.

Equipment

I use a converted Canon 30D and an 18-55mm lense. No tripod.

Inspiration

I was trying to create a surreal photo showing the huge oaks, but having them look as if it were a winter scene at first glance.

Editing

I use Adobe CS5 to edit the photos, converting the infrared back to near normal spectrum.

In my camera bag

Normally for infrared photos, I use the Canon 30D and the 18-55mm lense. For close-up photos I use my 55-250mm. I also use a ring flash for shooting people and close-ups. No tripod is needed with a converted camera, but you can get crisper photos if used on occasion.

Feedback

Best bet is to try to find a sunny day. Cloudy days have less light. There are 3 types of infrared conversions. Go for the middle conversion. (720) it's the profession grade and better choice. Converted cameras also allow for handheld operation.
