I found a new technique and thought I would give it a try. I know most of you pros could probably do this with your eyes closed but for me, its a big deal....

I'm clueless when it comes to Photoshop work.

Local contrast enhancement takes about 5 seconds and it doesn't blur the image (unless that's what you were shooting for)

I was going for the blur'ed (softer) look. Maybe it doesn't work well with this photo?

No... no... it's fine. Very nice actually. I liked the image I just didn't know if that's what you were going for or if you were shooting for more "pop"...

Here's where I got the Local Contrast Enhancement tutorial. Something for the arsenal. One can never have too many "bullets" for the image processing gun...
