New Infrared Experiments

The first experiments of the season involved an X-E2 with the 35mm f1.4 Fuji lens and a cheap 720nm filter.

The first few color pictures, made on 28 April, came after I set white balance on a rhubarb leaf. I should have reset it several times during the session, because the temperature changed as the afternoon progressed.
