Thanks AP

This is taken on the Reykjanes Peninsula in Iceland. Of course all post processing involves a bit of Saturation but I can honestly tell you that all of the colors in the picture are there. It´s an amazing place.

The name of it is SOG. If you do a google image search with these keywords "sog keilir" you should get more info.

Thanks all!!
