Default "Bigblue" - too much PP??

I like this shot but feel that I may have overdone the PP. Does it look too overdone?

I took this early this morning whilst playing around with shutter speed on my new 400D.

bigblue

This works for me - I love the blues and the blurring of the water and the contrast/direction of the rocks... Delivers a dreamy affect... Sorry I can't offer any technical input, only my impression of this beautiful shot

I agree with gilbertgurl - It's blue, and as long as it's been processed to be just that then you've got nothing to worry about. Good shot.

Agree, I like it. My only gripe would be the two areas of massive over exposure which draw your eye to them, looking for some detail. Other than that, nice composition
