Oak Tree IR

My family and I have had many an Easter Day picnic under that very tree. When the show "Dr. Quin, Medicine Woman" was being made, there was a graveyard underneath it, and we would sit among the wooden headstones for our picnic.

Truly a beautiful tree! I love IR, and this is great. Now that you mention that, 2F/2F, it does look like that tree from "Dr. Quin".

Nice work! Do you mind sharing what you rated the film?

Thanks for the comments! I was also out there a few times when they filmed "Dr Quinn..." Remember the train out by the depot building? Nowadays the only things I 've ever seen being filmed are what are apparently Japanese TV commercials.

@jbridges: Without filtration the Efke 820 is supposed to have a box speed of 100, with the IR filter the film rates at 1 to 1.5 seconds. I set my incident meter for a film speed of 1 second, and then bracketed exposures, but the meter reading was generally the correct exposure for the film/developer combo. I tried over-exposing for the "blooming glow", but those shots are effectively unprintable - much too high in contrast, and no real "bloom" in the Wood Effect areas. I shot a roll on this same day in my Minolta srt101 and got very similar results with the exposures, so it was not just a matter of the idiosyncrasies of the Holga.
