I think 'tweaked' is the word you're looking for.   :o

It's a long exposure to get the 'misty' effect on the water, together with turning up the colour a bit in Photoshop. Personally, I think it would have looked a lot better in b&w.

Hmmmm... I suspect ME was referring to the pier image, and not the rather...interesting evangelical offering.
