There you can see the colors come right back as the iso dropped. That is what you will see when making an aperature/shutter change as well, and in failing light or in a situation where you are ina huge rush, iso can sometimes be the fastest way to change the light (as you saw, higher iso = noise, the same will apply to an underexposed image)
In a sunrise/sunset, you arent going to always be abe to get an exposure that captures the range of light available(faux HDR can help create that look). That is why composition and subject matter needs a bit of thought so that what you loose in detail becomes interesting throught the silouette. In those images, the A frame become interesting and part of the image while the distracting elements disappear. I took images of one of the prettiest sunsets i'd ever seen in Georgia a few years back, but the images were just of pretty colors as I was driving down the road in an unknown to me area and couldnt find anything that made the shot work LOL! You should always be thinking how that barn, car, truck, fence etc will look when shot at sunrise/sunset! Some photographers really have an eye for that sort of element!
