IR photos can be taken in both colour and b&w,
To have the blue sky, a correct custom white balance has to be done, then channel swap the colours in photoshop... U can refer to the sticky threads for examples

Very nice! I don't see many people around. Wonder what time did you take these shots ? Also, I suppose one should preferably take IR photos during the daylight hours, correct ?
I also suppose you took these shots with your Sony F717 IR as opposed to your 40D right ? Did you use any wide angle lens on F717 then ?

Thanks,
Mostly i took my IR photo around 9am-11am or 3pm-5pm with my F717 + R72 & ND8...
in mid day i have to add CPL filter to prevent OE on the photo coz abit difficult to take IR photo on mid day using F717 coz the pict become OE..
I use 0.45x wide angle converter on my F717 to get fish eye & wide angle....

Using F717 to taking ppls in IR (IMHO) is not a good idea because very difficult to get the skin tone & ppls look like a ghost

haha, i see, certainly no good to look like ghost. is it also a must to add some ir filter even when u hv an ir cam? guess u wld mod a body perm ir if u hv one more to spare.

Hey, nice IR series. May I check what is your average exposure time for sonyF717? I m using canon 500D and I need to expose for average 1min for any IR shots to look decent.

For Sony F717 no need modification, you can use night shot mode with IR filter but the PP abit different with mod camera.
The max exposure speed is 1/60 that's why i need to add ND8 and sometimes CPL to prevent OE....
1/60 still OK to capture without tripod

@beautifulsunset : Mostly the exposure speed is 1/60 for 1 photo using Sony F717 with Night shot mode + R72 + ND8
