I'm still testing the limits of my IR filter. Focusing was the biggest challenge here, since the subject was moving and you typically focus before putting the filter on the camera. IR filters block almost all visible light so you typically have to focus _before_ putting the filter on the camera. I had to work hard for this test shot. But the real reason for the test to see if it could be done and if the high ISO noise would be tolerable. I was pleasantly surprised; it seems to be acceptable with a little post processing noise reduction work. It reminds me of some of my Holga-ish images from the beginning of the year when I first started learning photography.
