Thanks for the comment Aqeel, always welcome. My approach to digital is the same it always was with film - do it right on camera. The rigth exposure is critical, especially in the highlights. We have some leeway in the shadows though. I normally underexpose by between 0.3 and 1 fstop and sometimes I go to minus 3 or more to make sure I got the hightlights correct. For this particular shot I underexposed by 0.67 fstop which gave me nice rich colours. My experience with saturation enhancement is that you easily loose the fine details and subtle tones, especially in the reds and greens. If I do increase saturation, it is never with more than 5-8%. Kind regards and joyfull image making for you.

How do you manage to capture these colors without playing with the saturation in PS ?? This is simply breathtaking. Compliments!

Wonderful colour contrasts of orange against blue. It's wonderful just to experience these events and it's even better when you remember your camera!

Dagse Riny, dankie vir die inloer. Sneeu is maar redelik skaars hier maar kom wel soms op die hoogste bergpieke voor en ek het nog nie die voorreg beleef om dit sien nie (ons woon nie verniet in "sonnige" Suid Afrika nie. Die sonsondergange is dikwels baie mooi, hierdie een was besonders. Baie groete en dit lyk asof die gesondheidsprobleem grootliks opgeklaar het.

Hi Morgan, thanks for the great comment. I did three things in PS. Slightly adjusted the brightness and contrast, applied a high pass filter (strength 2 and overlay) for the sharpness and did a 10% adjustment for the dark shades to make the pier just visible. Other than that it is the original. It was an extraordinary day with the an extremely strong wind which created the mottled effect on the sea surface - the colours was derived from the reflections from the clouds. I have many others, some of which I will upload in time.Kind regards.

GREAT colors and composition. I'm assuming you PS'ed the ocean, if you did, excellent work! If not, I have no idea how you got those colors and am EVEN more amazed.
