 I might have given a bit too much of saturation...
After sliding the color temperature to the minimum of the daylight range, it looked quite like this in Capture NX (picture control: vivid). When I exported to CS3, it faded a lot, so I had to aggressively saturate.
I used a circular polarizer.
f=14 mm

Yap, I ignored that tilted horizon... should have been a mountain shot.

Wonderful capture. The horizon doesn't seem level to me but that's a small matter. Well done!

Postcard photo, very appealing. Could have the whole palm tree in the photo though.
