For People new to Infrared Photography,
Rather that re write the wheel
I most highly recommend two sites that answer
many oft repeated questions related to understanding
in infrared photography
Member Jerry Kneupper's IR blog. Includes featured IRtists and various articles. Perhaps the best Beginners IR Photography step by step article available
http://www.irbuzz.blogspot.com/
---------------------------------------------------
Claudio Ruscello and member Marco Annaratone's lengthy, well documented, technical "gentle introduction" to IR photography.
http://www.infraredphoto.eu
These are must reads for newbie and old hands alike, IMO.
