That would be very good except there's a lot of the sky under the tree canopy that is gray. It doesn't look right. If those portions of the sky could be colored, it would look better. I've done it with Photoshop.

Opps.... The reason I avoided it. It is the water from the lake. The IR shot was black and white. The shot underneath is color. How did how build the mask in Photoshop to get between the branches? Please help with some instructions. Thanks again. Will look forward to learning how you did it.

Here's a photo where I replaced the background with another. I photographed this family in a studio with a white backdrop behind them. I found backgrounds online that have a three dimensional look. I used Photoshop Elements to replace the white backdrop with the background I found online. I followed the directions on how to replace skies in Photoshop. It's not a tree like your photo but I had to work the background in everywhere around the family. The area below her left knee and between the chair leg and the fellow's leg are places where I had to work in the background.

excellent job. thanks for sharing. I will keep working at it. thanx
here are two more renditions. Hopefully better. This is made up of two images one in color the other B&W with ir simulation laid on top of each other. The back ground is the real sky the real lake and the real tree. I did take some impressionistic liberty with my presentations. Hopefully you will find these a bit better. thank you for your support :)

Infrared is great. Both photos are interesting but I think I like the second one the best. I like the red and yellow you added around the perimeter of the tree. I used to shoot some Kodak HIE black & white infrared film. It was the most sensitive infrared film. It had a be loaded and taken out of the camera in complete darkness and put in a lightproof container. The film could get fogged otherwise. Here's a shot I took with it in Colonial Williamsburg.

Nice ir shot. Nice work. I actually never shot B&W ir film. I did shoot Kodak Ektachrome ir which instead of rendering greens as white rendered greens as magenta. Color distortion was however based on changes in shooting parameters. I did play a lot with posterization shooting B&W and doing exposure variations on Orthochromatic film to positives then negatives then stacking the exposures to prints. I liked doing posterization more then shooting ir film. I will have to dig up some to that old work and post it. I did make a mistake in that first shot I posted. I over worked it and took to much out. All this came out of my investigating using GIMP for editing. Thanks for using Kodak Film :) I worked there for 38 years as research technician. Anyways, thanks for the interaction and exchange of idea's. Nice chatting with you. Have a great day and Happy Shooting :)
