Only one unit has had a porch of 1920 vintage substituted for the original. The segmental brick arched windows have slightly projected brick trim. Most of the wood picket fences are in place although not all are well-maintained. The color schemes of all the houses are typical of the eighties.

Infrared is a tricky game. Especially when it's cloudy outside. And rainy.
I recently had one of my cameras converted full time to infrared.
I had a 590nm Filter installed by Kolari Vision.
I did some minimal post-processing, channel swapping and fiddling a little with the hue/saturation.
Seriously... there is no more fun way to immediately void the warranty on your camera. ;-)
