It looks surreal, almost as though it has been painted or drawn, .
I think to get over the 'thats not real aspect' would be to have more rocks showing. A little more detail in the rocks would give it some depth. Or even having more rocks in it. The reds on my computer are very vibrant, dominating the scene.
This is wonderful. As cliche as sunsets are, you just can't go wrong with an intense shot like this. The colors are great without being over saturated. I'm bumping it up.
absolutely mesmerizing, I was going to say over processed, but its right on the border for me. More rocks shown in the frame would eliminate some reflection on the water making it less smiting...and perfect. 8
