Hi Mr J
First of all, sorry to get back to you so late ..
The white balance is all important, you take a shot of sunlit green grass, and you set the custom white balance referring to this shot .. then you will get brownish toned photos, which allow you to go in both b&w or colour direction ..
Secondly : channel mixer (swapping red and blue channels) will get you a blue sky, and eventually other colours in parts of your photo, depending on what you photographed .. but in most of my colour work, i re-apply colour using layers on which i paint with a colour brush.. and that is to my own tast of course ..
Hope this helps.
Peter

Peter I must confess that my work with infrared lately has been limited to b&w, it's pieces such as yours that interest me greatly. My usual set-up is a converted Nikon D70 shot in auto white balance mode which turns out something like this on a consistent basis....

Hi John,
What configuration are you working with for IR ?
The canal shot was a single exposure, the original is brownish, and after applying channel mixer i already have the blue sky you see in the picture .. now this required an all important step : making a shot of bright sunlit grass, and using that picture for a custom whitebalance .. before that i also got magentish photos i could do nothing with ..
Hope this helps !
Peter

Peter, please help me out on this shot. I've tried to learn the workflow to get good I/R AND natural light shots in one image such as this. Is this a single I/R exposure, or one I/R and one normal color combined? I begin with a heavily magenta-ized color I/R, attempt color channeling, but never end up with quite the beauty I see here (?) Best regards, John
