Saw this on zzz and have to agree. It doesn't seem that cool until you realize that the picture was taken in 1900. The guy took the pic using 3 filters (RGB) and then they were recombined.

Everything looks super clean and bright (ie. fake), but that *might* just be from the mixing of the filters. It's either really cool.......or really photoshopped/staged.
