First we are going to adjust the hue and saturation. Click on Filters > Adjust Color > Hue/Saturation.



This will bring up a new window with three options. Hue, the first of the three, will adjust what colors are found in your photo. By sliding the bar you convert the colors that are already in your picture left or right on the color spectrum. We have a lot of reds and yellows in this photo, so lets move the bar to the left a bit and get some purple in there. Next we are going to adjust the Saturation, this is adjusting the amount of color. Moving it to the right will decrease the gray in the photo and increase the color.



After adjusting the hue and saturation my photo looks like the one below.

After I finished I added a black border to the photo, here is how it turned out:
