This was a difficult one. I ran into it in Windows 10 Spotlight, and I immediatelly liked it, especially the purplish-magenta tint, but it was obviously taken too far - so-much-so that it started looking airbrushed. I wanted a hint of those colors, but still somewhat plausible. The thing is, it was difficult to track down the original photo - apparently, the photographer took several of them in a short span of time (the clouds and the canopies move a bit between them), and they each came cropped slightly differently. So this is a composit of several of them.

Then I made the colors similar to Windows 10 Spotlight ones, only not so drastic.
