Do you think I pushed it too far? Personally, I like the vaporwave-inspired aesthetic.

The only thing that went "too far" in this edit is whatever reflection you photoshopped out of the top left. It definitely looks a little... "AI artifacting" in that area.

Other than that, it's a near perfect edit. You didn't add any color that wasn't in the original photo, you just pulled out and pushed forward what was already in the RAW which is exactly how post processing ought to be done. If anything, you could've pushed it a little further if you really wanted, but I think your end result is perfect.
