Twist of light not in the scene but on the photo

The below photo is posted at the courtesy of Mr. Trainer. He got caught up by the charming sunset purple sky. He immediately took his iPhone to capture it. However, there wasn't the twist of white light above IFC. In fact, the light seemed to be not naturally part of the sky if you check on the gradual white (on the right) to blue/purple on the left. If it was cloud, it would be also in light purple shade like the other cloud in the photo. Anyway, the photo came out very nice, ambient and poetic on this busy congested city.

Nice photo, I wonder what makes it purple.

Wow, I did not expect Mr. Train's photo is so "pro". Just a casual take from IPhone already so good.
Mr. Train has big potential to be a National Geographic type of photographer.

Is the purple color made up of the blue sky and the red sun at sunset?

Sorry. I mean Mr. Trainer(not Train).

When I magnify the photo a bit and noticed the ship is not affected by the purple. I was thinking it's actually the chemical particles from the mainland factory which makes the sky that purple, but when I further checked with Mr. Trainer. He said he just got amazed at the orange red color of the sunset behind IFC. It wasn't that purple at the scene and again the twist of white light wasn't there.
