Beach Grass & Snow Fence

I'm doing a lot of experimenting lately. This is my near-infrared experiment. Evidently the grass doesn't have the necessary amount of chlorophyl to effect the infrared character of the film. It's also lower on the infrared spectrum. I especially like the dark sky.
Location
Erie Pa
Equipment Used
Rolleiflex

1/8th sec @ f/11 (EI 6)
Film & Developer
Rollei Infrared, Rodinal 1:25 7 min

I agree that it doesn't look like a typical IR image (...I like them a lot, too), but it is very striking and engaging. Thanks for sharing.
 
I need to thank two people for steering me in the right direction. Fotohuis for telling me about the Rollei IR film, and Titrisol for telling me about Ethol LPD.

Thanks guys!
 
The sky really makes this picture stand out for me. Thanks for sharing.
 
As far as I know Rollei is a little more subtle than say Kodak HIE in its IR effects. Given the limited IR from dune grass this looks very good.

In this sort of shot I prefer the Rollei to Kodak.
