Well, here in Belgium I just disovered some "new" ruins with wild flowers around
AND I have some HIE in the fridge.  This begins to sound interesting.  Except it
just doens't stop raining :-(

On the subject of IR flash.  Has anyone tried to use an array of IR LEDs ?  I'm
thinking about designing an array with some "high-brigthness" LEDs with different
IR wavelengths.  I believe one can get those from 980 nm to 680-700 nm.
Illumination might be a bit difficult (it is pretty difficult to guess how much
IR there is when there is no visible light as s reference).  Somethink like a
near-infrared floodlight.
