I would love to give the color IR a shot, but don't recall if you need a
filter. Do you remember if one is needed and what color? Seems I tried it
years ago and was disappointed with the results. Don't recall how I did what
ever it was I did.

Yeah, good one, how would you know if the color shifted?

Seems I might have known someone or was even married to someone with skin
like you described below! :)
