Why f/22 and 5 seconds? I don't really like the fuzzy trees nor the crooked horizon but the colors are great.
I think you could've gotten away with f/8 1 second and had a much shorter exposure for less wind to bounce around your tree detail. But maybe I don't know much about IR.
Hmm, as cool as IR is, I don't like this picture quite as much as your other ones. There doesn't seem to be enough contrast in the foliage, so it's just a mass of white-ish stuff... The bark of the trees are cool looking, though, and the sky's pretty.

the sky in the image is absolutely breathtaking, and i think it's what makes this image work. it makes me look through the trees and up. it definately steals the show. the coloring is quite good. was this darkroom work or did you adjust this in photoshop? the angle of the picture also works, you follow the trees from corner to corner and down again. great contrast between the sky and scenery. i can't get a clear view of this in my browser as it's a bit to long, so i can't really critique the focus or detail. it's all a bit of haze in small view. overall a nice piece, with a clean border.
i don't really get a meditation vibe from this piece, the colors make it look more manic to me. i guess i don't see the knowledge that's left. i guess i see this place as a forgotten land. there was knowledge here, but it left long ago on the wind. now it's empty, desolate, looking for something it lost. perhaps the abundance of white makes this piece hallow?
