I'm glad you posted the link to the full size, the limitations here kill stitched panos.
While IR in general is not my favorite, you've done a nice job here. I like the mirrored blue top and bottom, and the pano treatment is perfect for this.

This is an interesting take on this location. I do wish there was a little more depth between the mountains and the front line of trees, but I'm not sure how you could do this with the lighting and IR. I'll have to give IR a try with Architectural photography. I've seen some interesting results there.
The biggest issue I'll get with the tree line is that the foliage reflects the IR light a lot more than the rock from the mountain. If there were more snow I'd probably get a few bluer hot spots on the mountain from the light throwing back from the snow. It does work pretty well with architecture provided you are outside on a sunny day. I have a nice shot of the back side of Pittock Mansion in IR that looks almost like it was taken in winter time, but it was the middle of spring. The details in the mansion are pretty awesome.

Felt pretty good about this one.

I also need to touch up for sensor spots, sorry.
