Hi there all IR fans, just a further tip - I've been experimenting with Custom White Balance and have found a setting I think improves it - certainly in bright sunlight and with a D100. I do the normal set by pointing at very green grass and then dial in -2 exposure bias. This seems to bring out detail in the areas that would go very white, and gives a better overall balance. For information - my gallery posts - Menai Panorama and Contemplating the Straits also had a full strength Cokin P Graduated ND filter on.
