So let me get this straight... Is this thing real...? ;D
Yes, they're real, but many of those photos are heavily color adjusted (increased saturation, mostly). Wikipedia has more realistic representations:

Do not go and be underwhelmed. ;)

Thanks for the additional links, and I suspected as much, that just popped up in my news feed and I've been otherwise distracted by my guitar all day. A good day even if it's snowing.....again....again.
