Thanks, Debi & Sharon. Sharon, I took this at 4PM and at this time of the year and in my neighborhood, literally a few more minutes and no shot. Also, the relationship between the IR modified sensor and the existing light meter is somewhat skewed when its modified for IR. I get underexposed by 2 stops if not ECed. Also, noise doesn't seem to be as much of a factor in this cam, so dialing-up the ISO seems to have a less adverse effect than with "normal" cams. This might also be due to the low pixel density of the D30. Cheers, -mikey

Wonderful infra-red, Michael! Can you tell me why you used iso1600? Is that something you have to do when shooting infra-red? A very evocative shot! ~Sharon
