Great shot and i love the colors! It feels as if i have went back in time when viewing this photo. If its ok with you could you share with me in an e-mail telling me how you achieved these magnificent colors? If not thats ok, but great photo!

Thanks! Actually, it's not that hard.
I've found that with a lot of the older Ektachromes (this slide is 36 years old!) I have to drop the saturation about 25% in Photoshop. Then I increased the yellow and in this case magenta just slightly. The improvement is very subtle and minimal. And it always helps to start out with a good image!
I'm really glad you like it, and that you found my photoblog. I'll be watching yours.
