This is the first attempt at using the M8 for IR pictures.  The  
camera is a natural.  There are 2 great advantages to using the M8  
for iR:  you can focus with an 87 filter on the lens (impossible with  
a DSLR), and reasonable shutter speeds because there is no IR cutoff  
filter over the sensor.

This image was at 9 am, handheld, 1/60s, A mode.  I set the color to  
B&W so that I get an idea of the final image while shooting.
