A false rendition of the true colors

Huang Shan Sunset
A typical scene from Yellow Mountain.  I must admit I tampered with the saturation slider heavily.  I just arrived at the mountain top an hour ago and I was still ecstatic with the scenery and everything I saw was heavenly.  I swear this was what I saw but of course the real picture rendered by the sensor was very much unsaturated, and I was disappointed.  It took me a while to post-process the file and this is reflecting what I remember, although it may not be really the case.  Another example that pictures sometimes lie.
