Panorama comparisons: Colour, Infra-red colour and Infra-red monochrome

I bought a second-hand lens for use with my infra-red converted camera – a 55mm Takumar (Pentax). I decided to try using it (via converters) to take a set of panoramic views in normal colour (using my main camera – a Fuji), false colour infra-red using the converted camera (a Sony), and a monochrome image by using a 950nm filter at the taking stage.

Below are a set of 3 images with comparison sliders:

950nm IR mono pano

An interesting exercise. Getting the images to align was a little tricky because, although I was using the same lens, the two cameras have different sensor resolutions.
