For the colors of the first photo, it is hard to imagine and convey how fiery the sunrise was at that moment. Probably the best to show the raw file and dng. NO color boosting on the ACR just checked the camera calibration to camera landscape. Some camera models may fail to capture the colors during the actual shoot but I try to stay close as possible as a visual reference.
I really enjoyed the original two photos, the 2nd being my favorite due to the sweet light on the peaks. But this last detail of the bubbles is fantastic! I'm not usually a fan of the more abstract photos, but I love the detail in this one.
The first image is too atomic for my tastes, both in the blues and the magenta sky. Tone it down a bit and I think it will look better. I also wish that the foreground bubbles at the very bottom were not slightly out of the depth of field and stretched from wide angle perspective. I do like the second image much better. Realistic colors and a much more balanced composition with tall mountains on both sides of the frame instead of only on the left ... and all leading to the distant peak lit up by the setting sun. Really nice.
