Anyway, I decided I should really get back out this spring and summer and do some more infrared work. There are great parks around here; nice places at the edge of town... I just need a bright day, the contrast of dark sky and inky-black water and the trees like snow, and I can get some more of that wonder. A couple of weeks ago I went looking for replacement batteries to fit the S80 (and the S70 and Rebel XT, for what it's worth: same battery). A place in British Columbia was selling them for about $8 apiece, so I bought four. They're here and waiting.
Had a roam through my old IR shots again yesterday evening and uploaded nearly two dozen to Flickr. Some of them are probably already there, but I don't care. It was just a way to start to get back into it.

I've never shot IR but always think that the white landscapes it yields are so cool.
They are cool, aren't they? I remember when I fist saw that kind of thing on Flickr... wow, I guess it's closing in on ten years ago!... and thinking I had to get into that if I possibly could. If you really are interested, folks have got all kinds of reconditioned digitals up on eBay, some of them really reasonably priced too.
