Hello, everyone! This is the first time I have posted anything to the portrait thread. I am usually lurking in Nature and Landscape. I wanted to get better though, so I have read some books and watched a lot of videos. Now I know enough to be dangerous! I really am interested in infrared photography. I think it creates a lot of drama, and I love the fact that high noon is optimal time for shooting. I hate waking up early! My lovely wife was kind enough to stop during our walk yesterday and posed (embarrassed though she was) for a few shots for me when we walked by an old mill. She was a little upset because she was just wearing an old hoodie =) I am a beginner in all types of photography and would love your comments and advice. The one problem that I have had with IR shooting specifically is over exposure. Sometimes it's hard for me to see on my LCD if it is properly exposed and then I open it up on PS and wish I had taken the photo down a stop or two. Practice makes perfect, I guess.
