OK. One aspect seriously worried me was the conversion to greyscale. This destroys all colour info. I dont lke this as I like to have colour in my IR.
I also tried taking the B&W and the original colour image and combining this produced some really false colour IR images that I am still experimenting with. I am sure that the 'kooky' images look very 1970s psychadelic and strange but would cause heart failure for many purists!
I had wondered about the grayscale conversion BEFORE the colour adjustments. You effectively drop to a lot less (128) shades of 'grey' and then try to work on them?????
Its the opposite to the established logic for grayscale images ... When you scan a photo, you should always scan in RGB and then convert to grayscale rather than scanning in grayscale from the outset.
