 Gay Head Cliffs, Gay Head, Martha's Vineyard

Please let me know if you think this is OVER saturated. Often, its hard for me to decide....

Many selective curve and hue/sat layers were used in this one, mostly to bright out the particular colors of the rocks.

Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, it was overcast that day. This would a perfect location for a golden hour shot!

I think the saturation is fine, although the lower right tends to draw the eye a bit. If you boosted the blue in the water (as suggested by others) it would balance things out a bit. This must have been amazing to see in real life, your photo makes me want to go there and shoot and shoot and shoot.

Not oversaturated at all. I agree with the General, I'd add some more blue to the water.

I don't think it's oversaturated, in fact, I'd be tempted to mask off the sea and sky and make them even a little more blue.

You definitely brought out the detail, and gave a different "feel" to the day.

I especially love the warm colours you have brought out in the cliffs. This image certainly has more impact than the original.

Yeah, a little over the top in that the muted water tones don't match the light and brights in the rocks and foliage. I'd crop some of that sky out to bring the attention more down to your cliffs.

You've done a fabulous job of removing the haze present in the original. I really love the intensity of the colors and the defined texture in rocks, you definitely met your stated goal!

Lovely work bringing out the color and contrast in this! I love being able to see the formations in the outcropping.
