Nice Gary. I have a 580nm filter for my full spectrum camera and my experiment wit hit have always ended up with almost violent colours.

This is what the raw looked like without the red/blue channel swap and the other curve tweaks:

Sincerely, I'm not sure I love the red/blue swap (not talking about politics, here), but I appreciate this experimentation and the yellow ferns are very interesting and detailed.

My wife took an iPhone shot because the ferns and the other plants were such an intense green

very cool! was this with a filter or a modified body?

I had a Lumix GX85 modified by Kolari.

Well, that's interesting - I don't think your pre-processed shot could be more different to the kind of thing I am getting!

The blueish/green is what I see through the viewfinder of the converted camera. The camera auto focuses correctly.
The far right is what I see through the VF. The middle is with just a red/blue channel swap and the far left tweaks the middle with some curve play in post.

I’m usually wary of colour IR, but this is certainly a very interesting experiment. Aside from some technical uses, I’m never quite sure what to do with such ‘other-worldly’ images.
I always remember a nice quote, but cannot recall who is attributed to it; “A photographer is someone who knows how to shoot with infrared film, but chooses not to!”.
Don’t let that put you off though as I really do find the images and the various process experiments very interesting. I should use my IR (and UV) cameras more, especially as they are used so little for work these days.

That's an interesting shot. It would be interesting to better understand how prominent her veins were under normal viewing circumstances. I'm not familiar with the behavior of 830nm.

Pretty much invisible. It is ‘seeing’ the temperature difference.
