Good subjects for IR photography?

I recently bought an accessory adapter and a Hoya R72 filter for my Canon G3, so that I could do some infrared photography. This is "near IR" photography, the kind where things look weird

not thermal infrared, where you can see how hot things are:

The filter cuts down the amount of light by a pretty huge amount - I went from a 400th of a second down to around a 4th of a second on an outdoor scene.

The results were as I expected (weird and very red), but I'm looking for some advice on subjects.

  anything apart from the Sun apparently! although trees/distance would seem to be favourites (http://dpfwiw.com/ir.htm)

  Eirc, the result looks like that obtained from just using a standard red filter. How is the IR filter different? Marcus

  Foliage is always good along with a blue sky and some scattered clouds. Flowers are another one. Results will be best on sunny days when there is more infrared light available from the sun.
