Reflections of Spring Break [Elements of Design]

Who would guess that beyond these pretty, colorful boat reflections some wild, chaotic and drunken activity was ensuing? The location: Lake Havasu City, Arizona, last weekend.

great color usage here patricia. did you use any software to saturate the colors more or is this the original image? #227136Paula Showen March 20, 2005
Those colors just pop! Great composition, Patricia! #1193237Stephen Zacker March 20, 2005

Patricia, I really really really like this!!! So, lets just say I love it!Patricia Marroquin March 20, 2005
Thank you very much, Katie, Paula, Stephen and Lori.Katie, these colors were already pretty vivid, but I did punch them up with a couple of filters: Brilliance/Warmth and Skylight, both by nik multimedia. I use those filters on pretty much every image; I love the results.
Lori, that's so kind of you, thanks again.
Here's the wild and crazy chaotic spring break scene just beyond the reflections. #1193380
