Great modeling and mats! really looks right-on:)....just to point out something u may want to add.....everything in the Matrix is green tinged, so if you really wanted to get the matrix mood u could throw up a light green filter in front of your bryce camera.

looks sweet!killer weapons:)

ya:)....i tweaked it out a little with NeatImage. The pic in this link i didnt really have to do much since there was alot of light and very little noise, but i had to give the works to the other 2 pics i posted after it, they were a bit darker. I guess no matter how much $$$ you throw down at a digital cam, there will still be noise in the lowlight pics. :(....owell, cant have my cake and eat it too, huh?

Ive tried that, but i wasnt pleased with the results, anyway, i cant find my filter, i moved 3 months ago and "misplaced" it :-(. BUT.....im just gonna order 1 tomorrow and next day rush it, then ill be back in the saddle again :-)

yea, me and Michelle already discussed my IR photos being in the challenge, since they were taken during the day, they werent allowed....but theres a few days left so im gonna try to reverse my photos....im gonna put my IR pass filter on my 3 million candle power halogen light and bathe the night with IR light and see if the camera can do it like that:)

I figured you were giving special treatment to a friend and not me cause you dont know me....just got in from 12 hours of work (Mover) and it was 94degrees here today so i had a short fuse the minute i walked into the door and i noticed that pic and the timer was activated on the nuclear bomb inside me. Sorry to be a pest;)

i have that older model sony nightshot, its got a switch to turn on the ir led and lifts an ir block filter out of the lens path inside the camera,but you HAVE to have an IR pass filter on to do what(all CCD cameras have to have an ir blocking filter in them or they wash out purple from the ir). Sony tried fixing it by making the picture overexpose if niteshot was turned during the day, they also fixed the manual exposure so you couldnt turn it down in niteshot mode. But ppl found out different ways, put the night shot switch halfway on and off and the ir block filter inside is lifted to allow full spectrum of ir in and you can turn down the exposure but the ir led doesnt turn on,(only has a 5 ft range anyhow and u dont need an ir light durning the day)slap on a pass filter and your ready to see some panties:)

well, never heard of a night filter, there is no other light that can penetrate clothing other than UV light. i have a sony camcorder. all you do is put the ir pass filter on and put the camcorder in nightshot mode, which moves the IR block filter inside the camera out of the way, the sony camcorders can do it better than a still shot camera. Sonys have the most ir sensitive CCD. owell, why? you been wanting someone to do that to you?;-)

you can "see" thru sunglasses and thin black and dark clothing. Thats mearly the IR light being able to penatrate objects and tints that visible light cant go through. Even then it has to be direct sunlight to really see "thru" those objects i descibed. There is no x-rays about it:P All the filter does is block the visible light and allow IR light thru to the lens. you can make a homemade IR pass filter with film by taking a pic with your lens cap on, then saving that negative of the lens cap shot and using it as a filter. :)

well.. they are already posted in my gallery.....i dont use film for the ir rork, Just an IR pass filter and my Sony.

greqat pic.....you wanna know what that puple is? the camera can "see" very well into the infrared spectrum of light, digital(mostly Sony)cameras are very good for ir photos. those coals are so hot the camera picksup the ir energy from them. Ir has no color and invisible to the human eye. You feel it on a sunny day though, as heat from the sunlight on your skinThe camera gives it a color, always purple. I primarly take lowlight and IR pics....i use an Infrared pass filter to block all normal light and only allow ir light thru it. theres ir block filters u can buy to block all the ir light as well. hope this info helps... Mike

go back and read that thread, lotta suggestions and info was added. me and ray have been posting for few days now to that thread about heat and such.
