Well, it's obviously very blue... but it works well with the orange sky. I like it Zolt - partially because it's unnatural colors (the composition works for me too). Now, please don't tell me that you didn't do anything to it and every sunset in Dalmatia looks like this - just a bit "bluer" - usually. :-)

thank you very much, Christoph!

the unusual amount of blue (and cyan) cast is caused by many things: first of all, the water there is obviously very blue, plus, the longer exposure enhances colors, and after the sunset, in the time called blue hour the blues are even stronger. the post-processing has very little to do with it, i added some saturation to the whole image, but no colors selectively enhanced. all the best!

Great contrast in the rough textures of the rocks and the smooth water courtesy of the long exposure.  I have experienced the "blue hour" on many occasions, but never been fortunate enough to do so with such a great sky.

Compliments & Best Regards
