I am a little in doubt about the foregrounds that are very empty. However, they do frame the intense reflections quite nicely. Perhaps the ever so slight cutting off at the bottom of the frame would do the trick?
IR and reflections are fascinating as one sometimes gets intense reflections sometimes not at all. for example, window glass reflections tend to simply disappear. Only trial and error will yield the answer for a given scene.
With a "full spectrum" camera, ie. one with only a neutral glass or quartz filter inside, one can get intense blue and natural-looking sky in conjunction with a B+W 403 filter. The ground details are rendered very "IR-like". This filter supposedly is for UV, but leaks a lot in the IR range. The filter was designed for films and then IR contamination tended to be moot. As the camera sensor natively is much more responsive to IR than UV, and the fact that IR intensity in daylight is 10-20X that of UV, the final outcome from use of the B+W 403 might not be very surprising. Besides the B+W 403 can be had in large sizes and is not equally expensive as most UV bandpass filters.
