Wishing to try infra-red photography but not jump straight in with a converted camera I opted to dip my toe into it with a HOYA IR72 filter. Mine is a round filter and only fits my 20mm f1.8 lens, and after a few test shots at home my first proper use was on hols earlier this month on the south coast in the Barton-on-Sea - Christchurch area
I found an exposure that worked as f11, 30 secs, 100 ISO on the brightest days, and slightly less bright I went up to 200 ISO rather than get my phone out to time a 1min exp, and all these are within that 1 stop range
My first shot was 7:28 a.m. on a rocky groyne, with my second shot being the 2nd groyne along 4 hours later - I was chilling The horizon lump far left is The Needles at the end of the Isle of Whight
The next day we nipped into Christchurch itself, and I took a few more snaps as wifey shopped
The white streaks on the water by the harbour are Swans moving during the 30 secs exposure
A few more in a sec
