I almost went in to a diabetic coma from this piece.
Seriously...waaay over done!
This was bit of a test. It´s actually quite funny because many people i talked to that dosen't know anything about photography think it's absolutely amazing.
Regarding the colors. They are punched up a bit but actually the sunset had quite amazing colors and maybe the long exposure helped a bit.
And last I actually think the colors are somewhat OK since the use of ND filter also makes it a bit more like a painting.
