I must say I rarely understand the attractions of IR film, but this goes some way to revealing them. I suppose it's all part of my basic attitude that photography for me is about capturing "how it looks" not superimposing something quite other on the scene. This is a sort of half-way house. I can believe the sky, but the while fields? The green duotone gives it a kind of dreamy tone that goes very well with the image. I like it in spite of the IR, if that doesn't sound too silly?

To John Reed True IR filter is visually opaque OK with R/F camera but a pain with an SLR. Dark Red is a compromise, Foliage in spring and summer appear almost white in IR an effect difficult to replicate in PS as are other IR effects such as haze penetration. IR films are generally grainier also, personally I like the effect however and Rodinal is NOT a fine grain developer. There ARE methods of getting a 'similar' effect in photoshop using chanels but it is not quite the same. Thanks to all.

The title seems a little misleading, actually. Possibly "Castle Gate" would've been more appropriate, since one can barely see the Castle itself? It looks a little grainy, especially in the sky around the castle. Does "Dark Red" filter = IR Filter? I just wondered how the photo would compare with one taken without filter, desaturated with Photoshop. What benefit do you feel you derived from the Dark Red filter? (I'm still groping for the answer to this one myself)
