This is a great picture. I love the tones and colors. Do you mind if I ask how this image was processed?

Sure. I most used a few of my own overlays - think of textures that are blurred so they mostly just enhance certain ranges of color. I mask the areas that I want affected. I then added the flare in a similar fashion. It was probably about 6 minutes worth of work ;) (but with some time investment building my texture layers in advance, of course)

A very nice picture, Dustin! Excellent work with post processing. It just goes to show that one can turn almost any subject, even the apparently least promising, into great pictures. :)

Absolutely. It's actually one of my favorite aspects of photography, as it doesn't take a huge amount of skill to capture a scene that is already gorgeous!
