Shitty Camera Challenge, Day 11:

I decided to take advantage of the gray area of 10MP digicams counted as "shitty cameras", and took my Ricoh GXR with IR-converted S10 zoom module. I was a bit concerned at first because when I snapped a few test photos in black and white mode, the exposures were way off. After much fiddling and going back to a regular color mode, the exposures were fixed. I'll have to look into that further. But I like the cotton candy tones of the foliage in regular color mode (I didn't have my additional variable IR filter on the lens).

P.S. Happy 7-11 day to those who use month-day date formatting. 😆
