They are all terrific shots, but I think I like the second and next to last ones the most. Have you explained anywhere how your D800 has been modified? I'd really like to try my hand at IR photography, but don't want to make any irrecoverable mistakes when it comes to camera modification to do it.

Another vote for #2, although the other images are no inferior.   I particularly like the bush on the right which look like the lying poodle.  :)

i used maxmax.com for an RG830 conversion.. ask for the 1.4mm thick filter. unfortunately, with respect to nikon they will be irrecoverable.  if you need service they will restore the sensor to factor specs and charge you 1500 USD for that alone. so think twice about modifying a camera.. i choose cams that i either purchased quite inexpensively or cams that i have used throughly and am ready to convert for ever.
