Landscape in IR [Olympus E-PL1, OM System 25mm f1.8 II, 720nm IR filter] (europe.pub)

I recently converted a cheap, partially broken, E-PL1 to be full spectrum sensitive by removing the filter that cuts UV/IR light. Despite this being a relatively cheap and old camera, the 12-ish megapixels combined with the razor sharp 25mm (50mm full-frame equivalent) honestly delivers plenty of detail.

The infrared look gives the landscape a strange, almost lunar calm. The white trees become the real subject, sitting between that heavy black sky and the wide, flattened field. What I like most is the scale: the sky wants to dominate everything, but the small line of trees holds its ground. A quiet image, but not polite. Thankfully.
