Well, everything is edited to some extent, especially if the basic image is a RAW file, as this was. This one was cropped and the saturation was enhanced somewhat…

Amelia Island, Florida.
It’s often red when it first emerges from the sea, becoming more yellow as it brightens… See more of the sequence here.
