Flower Boats at Xochimilco

Here's a nice memory from a trip to Mexico City in 1993. Heather and I went to Xochimilco to ride the beautiful flower boats. I recently came across this photo in my albums, so decided to post it today for Cinco de Mayo. I experimented with the contrast and the saturation, trying to find the best possible solution, given the bright reflections and dark shadows on the water. In this version, the color is slighly intensified to convey the vivid colors and the excitement of this adventure in Mexico.
