#ThrowbackThursday to May 2016, when I had the opportunity to use a friend's infrared-converted camera (and had fun with it😁).
The invisible IR light is "shifted" into our human range through white balance, so anything goes with regards to color — there's no one "right" way for it to look...
Therefore, it's common to use black and white, or to swap the red & blue channels, in order to get a blue sky (what I did here).

@alexskunz@mas.to wow this is nice. I once tried IR on my old D80, it looked SO ODD that I never tried again haha.
