In PS CS in the Selective Colour, changed Neutrals: Cyan (maximum) and less Black (-20), that's all. I hope you don't mind, I was just interested how it would look. Your photo is more realistic I think.
kind regards,

...straightening the lines to fit inside the frame, with Edit/Transform/Distort. I didn't apply any filters, but after Auto Levels, I faded them with 'Overlay' (about 80% I think) to bring out the colours and contrast, and framed with 10px white to match the lines on the pyramid.
As I said, nothing special, your shot is great!

Just thought that this way it would look really timeless! After changing to Grayscale, I autoleveled it and Faded Autolevels with Soft Light with opacity of 30% to bring out some contrast. Added frame I thought would be suitable.
I hope you don't mind, your version is wonderful!

I did it with Selective Colour feature - added more black to Cyan and Blue (just a bit, of course). I also cropped the lower part a bit.
I hope you don't mind, I just enjoyed your pic so much!

I very often use Neat Image to reduce the noise. It can be downloaded free, but maybe you already know. Applied warm filter in PS CS and increased contrast slightly.
Anyway, plz know you did a great work!!

In PS CS straightened the horizontal lines, and cropped a bit on the left. Enhanced the blue of the water.
I hope you will like it, TFS!

I really hope you don't mind, but I couldn't resist this lovely shot:)

In Photoshop CS used shadows/highlights menu, and then colour correction. It brightened the image and enhanced the colours at the same time.
Then, autolevels, and then Fade Autolevels Finally, used Neat Image to reduce the noise and make those lovely reflexions even cleaner.
Added white frame, but that's not important, is it? just a personal taste.
I hope you like it.
Thanx for sharing, Cip.
regards,
Marija:)

This is how it looked originally. The picture is a bit dark as it was dusk already.

Here are my steps in Photoshop 7.0:
-straightened the horizon a bit;
-cropped the lower part;
-selected only the sky and raised contrast, added more red and yellow, autoleveled, applied 'multiply' in Fade Autolevels with opacity of 50%;
-selected only the sea and added more blue;
-framed.
I hope you will like it, i find your picture beautiful!
