Although I'm Switzerland in the Canon/Nikon battle, I love the cannon. And I agree with Matt about the painting quality of infrared. Really nice.

My fav is the last one. But, why does a church need a canon (aside from the need to take the best photos possible)?

Here is the reason Kody
can·on·ize (kn-nz)

To declare (a deceased person) to be a saint and entitled to be fully honored as such.
To include in the biblical canon.
To include in a literary canon.
To approve as being within canon law.
To treat as sacred; glorify.

Smalltown -- I shot the cannon w/a Minolta which neutralizes it and Moose, too funny. As for the cannon itself -- most of the missionary churches in Texas were part of a presidio -- a combo military/missionary complex -- like the Alamo. Mixing violence with salvation isn't a new development.

They are indeed beautiful, and do look like the wonderful old movies of the fifties. Everything about them just say's class.

Is that infrared film or digital? It is beautiful. I can see that my PS plugin doesn't come close to the real thing.

The infrared is digital. I use a Hoya R72 filter to get the effect.

I've also tried via photoshop to create an infrared look. The plug-ins (actually actions) I use can be downloaded from here. http://www.nickgallery.com/web_pages/technical%207.htm Good luck.
