In general I prefer to work in black and white. When I do use color I often feel the need to use it surrealistically.  In this case the color is so bizarre because the image was shot on slide film and then cross-processed as if it were print film.   This creates a negative with a strange tonality and shifted color balance.   It's not an effect that is desirable in all situations, but I liked the way it worked out here.
