Subject: [Leica] Infra-red on the X-Pro1 [Or Monochrom]

One of the advantages of the Monochrom is how easy it is to do IR - I make 
no claims for this photo except that - as an experiment - I just added the 
Heliopan 715  filter and pointed it on a reasonably sunny day at my front 
gate ... it was never that easy with the M6. On the other hand once one has 
got passed the 'gee it is really easy to do IR' I haven't really found a 
subject which has called out for it
