Hi Alan,

Your HIE shots are very low grain. Maybe I'm using the wrong  
developer, D-76. And I use the Hoya R72 filter.

Thanks for the comment on my photo. I like it. But I guess you have  
to be into it to appreciate it. Actually it's a combination IR and UV  
photo. I used the B+W 403 UV filter but allowed IR to come through.  
It really brought out the clouds.

Len
