- Expand on anything photographic you like:

Never ever got around to "wet" IR although seeing the published work of
Simon Marsden in 1987 got me severely interested in the effect. ("The
Haunted Realm")

Every article I`d read about IR photography and digital (ccd) cameras
concluded with the same answer: No, you can`t ! Then this guy comes along
with a technique that opened my eyes and my whole approach to taking
pictures. That was Eric Cheng (don`t know if you`re subscribed to this list
Eric). My eternal thanks go to him for sharing his discovery.

Hope to speak to y`all sooner or later,

Geoff
