Cool and Saturated

I took this photo in the early winter of 2008.  I was still flailing away, trying to figure out how my camera worked and what it could do.  I'd like to say that I used the flash intentionally for some fill light to illuminate the sign, but I had the camera in "auto" mode so the flash popped up and fired on its own.  Afterwards I boosted the saturation a bit in Picasa to make the colors "glow" a bit more.  Looking back, obviously not a stellar effort, but definitely a part of the learning process... Taken at a pull out on Turnagain Arm, outside of Anchorage...
