yung ginagawa ko, nanyayari kulay white lang yung mga dahon tapos hindi ko magawang blue ulit yung sky..
ang alam ko lang.. channel mixer ..yung switching red at blue..
if you mind sir, pwede pa share din ng white balance and camera setting mo dyan?

you should start with correct white balance prior to shooting and postprocessing. kapag off ang white balance sa start palang, hindi mo maattain ang flexible tonal range ng IR. i use custom white balance. i do it by shooting and filling the frame with leaves, pwedeng grasses or leaves ng tree. basta dapat atleast 90% of the frame leaves. initially set to auto white balance. shoot with the IR filter screwed on the lens. f/11, iso 200, approx 60-80 secs when the sun is overhead. i shoot 10am-3pm. after shooting the leaves, set your cam to custom white balance. use the leaves photo as your custom white balance. then shoot using the custom white balance. stick to f/11, manual mode, 60-80 secs. it really depends. shoot in RAW format
