I don't know where this was taken and whilst we get some amazing sun rises/sets here this looks a little over cooked to my eye. I'd have preferred the reds (especially in the reflection) to be a little less saturated and maybe a little more light on the foreground grasses.
Looks like two folks were shooting together! This has come really strong tones. A little too strong for my tastes, but still a good image. Composition works well.
