This is really great, Donna! Nice work! #6659645Sandy Powers October 25, 2008
Donna, this is absolutely breathtaking. I just keep staring at it because it is so flawlessly perfect. Most infrared photos I've seen kind of blur together and lose detail. But this is crisp and sharp down to every single leaf on the tree.I'm glad you updated it and shared it with us :)
