Out early, caught the swirly!
Lens: Irix 30 Camera: KP 
Posted By: newmikey, 08-06-2022, 04:39 AM

So, having been totally absorbed in IR photography for several weeks, I decided to go back to basics today. I did do something I normally wouldn't do in order to capture a bit of mystery and nature's delight: I mounted my Irix30mm on a DA1.4x converter and shot it nearly wide open, causing that glow around contrasty areas. I only found out I had managed to tease out some swirly bokeh when I opened the file in my raw converter. Except for some minor modifications in post, this is basically as I saw it in the viewfinder.

I do see the swirls in this pretty, soft focused and dreamy shot. Nice colors and bokeh. I agree that this image is at the opposite end from your recent IR images. Nice shot. Thanks for posting.
