Seeing through the grass with IR

[PeteScherm@xxxxxxx]

Those are interesting photos that Andy @ RIT put-up on the site.  Last year, 
while in Ireland, I had hoped to improve the delineation of some 
incised-carvings (more than 1000 years out in the weather) I was 
photographing.  I only had some Konica 750-120 and an R72 filter with me, so 
I stayed with my trusty Plus-X.  Later that day, I  rationalized-away my 
reluctance to try it out by recalling that most of the "hidden-image" 
detective-work I've seen in the past was done with UV and not IR, and I 
should not have expected to see detail in a monolithic (literally) subject 
with infrared.  Now, I'm not so sure.  Any ideas out there?  I can get 
"almost real" IR with the Konica and a #87 filter.  Next year, I'll take the 
HSIR 70 mm. with me if the potential is there.
