Infrared compared to Panchromatic Film - Example Two

Here is another example comparing a negative shot on Kodak High Speed Infrared, to a typical panchromatic negative.  

I took these shots of some hoodoos in evening light, not far from East Coulee, Alberta.  The upper image is the one that I shot on Kodak High Speed Infrared.  The film was loaded into the film holder on October 10th 2022, and the image was taken on October 16th 2022.  The exposed film was pulled from the holder on November 14th 2022, and stored in the fridge until I developed the film on January 14th 2024.  The film reached its expiry date in August of 2001.

I shot this on October 16th 2022 at about 5:30 in the evening.  I used my one of my Ebony view cameras and a Fujinon-W 125mm lens.  A number 25 red filter was used, with no filter factor.  The film was rated at 100 iso and exposed at F20.0 for 1/15 second.  Development was in Kodak T-Max Developer, diluted 1:6, for 6:45 minutes at 22C [71F].  This one turned out pretty well, and even though it sat in the fridge for a year before being developed, it was exposed shortly after being loaded.  In my experience, prompt exposure and then a return to cold storage seems to yield reasonable results.

The second shot was actually taken moments prior to the infrared version.  It was taken on Kodak T-Max 100 film, rated at 80 iso and given Normal development in 510 Pyro.  Exposure was with the same camera and lens, and a number 25 red filter with a three stop filter factor was used.  Exposure was at F18.0 for 1/2 second.  Development was with hangers in open tanks for 7:45 minutes at 24C [75F].

The images actually look fairly similar, though there are some obvious differences.  In the Infrared shot the sky is noticeably darker, the shadow values have fallen off, and the vegetation has that IR glow.  Either negative would make a great print... in my not so humble opinion.
