Simple 720nm goodness

I was (finally) working on/clearing out some old stuff, and this pano didn't work as a whole, but there are surprisingly often some parts that are sort of nice, even though simple, and since the resolution is there, why not crop and make at least something out of it?

Just some basic 720nm b&w sweetness, foliage going really bright in direct midday sunlight. However, if I had shot this with an ultra wide lens the normal way, there would have been severe distortion cause it was a really steep meadow, so maybe not oversimplify or marginalize things.

Dabbling with other (shorter) wavelength for a little bit now, I have a newfound appreciation for how clean 720nm is (amongst other things), or can be I should say. It's not the standard IR filter for no reason I slowly (but surely) start to realize.

 

 

Source is a 37-piece mercator projection, trimmed 24327 x 15310 px, ~372,4MP, which I went ² with (6851px), ~47MP.

And due to Flickr's 'best display size', this lends itself to zooming in, I recommend it.
