Subject: [Leica] Interesting IR Effect

I took this shot of our Christmas tree under ambient room light along with 
the tree lights.  Because the tree is a real tree it is highly reflective of 
IR light and apparently the tree lights give off a fairly high 
amount of IR. Also as the tree lights blink the pattern of light from them 
is constantly changing which may explain the lack of distinct detail in the 
tree itself, the ornaments, on the other hand, are 
reflecting the ambient constant room lights which are florescent and give 
off very little IR and they are sharp.  The ornaments appear to be floating 
on a purple haze.
