It's so windy there that the trees are permanently bent. Wonderful atmosphere and colors. This is the kind of Magic Hour lighting that I like.
I removed some halos, darkened and sharpened the image a bit.

This was one of Flickr's Top Photos of the Year 2022. You can see why - the atmosphere is just so nice. It's just on the edge of stepping into my Pet Peeve #1 territory with the water and long exposure, but there's still some detail in the stream, so I gave it a pass.
I did bring some cool tones back, though.
