Rollei IR 400 at Tintern Abbey

Those are blooming great I love the first two (y) I've only ever seen the abbey from the road but I really hope to go and spend a few hours there one day in the future as there are so many fantastic photo's to be taken (y)

In shot 1, although it's a great photograph, I'd really liked to have seen the top of the building.

2nd shot is beautiful fantastic work
 
I'm liking the effect that the IR film is giving to those shots, seems almost 'other-worldly' if thats a word!

If you should ever think of shooting portraits with IR film though Danny, be careful, unfortunately plant fibres like cotton go invisible in the IR spectrum so you can see whats behind them (see why I'm saying to be careful?).
Hence the reason that Sony Handycams Nightshot mode (Retracts IR blocker filter from the CCD to see at night) forces the exposure time to be fairly long so that in daylight everything is blown out as Sony very nearly ended up getting sued when that feature first appeared!
