Both sets are gorgeous. I can't decide which I prefer, although I'm tending towards the photos made using the RG830 filter, simply because the black sky adds even more surrealism to the images. When you use the RG715, is the blue sky part of the original image, or do you have to reverse the red and blue channels to get  it?

Red/Blue swap... actually the RG715 passes a fair amount of the red end of the visible spectrum.. and this direct conversion filter is very thin (0.8mm) so it passes more red than the typical RG715 in a filter ring (usually ~2mm thick).

#3 looks unique.  I like the way you include the big leaves.

Bob, the third one with the leaf in the foreground is special!
