I sharpened a bit with CS3, I used smart sharpen, amount 344%, radius 0,3 pixels, and I removed Gaussian blur. I also thought a portrait crop would work better here, and also added a narrow black border in CS3 just to round ot off.

Hi Erwin

As I said, this is just an attempt to address the colour tones, dullness, and sharpness which are typical shortfalls of the digital camera's sensor.

Post Processing done:
1. Applied "Photo Filter" and selected "Warming Filter (85)" at 25% density.
2. Adjusted the "Levels" on the RGB channel with the "White slider" input at 235, the "Black slider" input at 12, and the "Midtones slider" input at 0.94.
3. Adjusted the "Shadow/Highlight" settings at the following values:-
-- Shadows:
-- Amount = 7%
-- Tonal width = 33%
-- Radius = 5px
-- Highlights:
-- Amount = 40%
-- Tonal width = 50%
-- Radius = 30px
-- Adjustments:
-- Colour correction = +20
-- Midtone contrast = 0
4. Increased "Saturation" +12.
5. Adjusted "Contrast" to +9 and "Brightness" to -3.
6. Applied "USM" at 325% amount, 0.3 radius, and 0.0 threshold.
7. Chose "Save for Web".
8. Adjusted the "Quality" upwards from the original downloaded size of 63.3kB to 184kB.

I hope you approve of the optimisation.

Regards
Loot
