Rex,
Nice image
I hope you dont mind, I have taken the liberty to play around with your image a bit.
Its quick and dirty but gives you the idea.
I have enhanced the detail a bit in the shadows and highlights.
Because the image has already been compressed to jpeg and downsized there wasn't a lot of information to play with
But had the image been larger and especially if it was in raw format there would be a lot you could do to it. ie to say 8 bits verses 12/14 bits and more unprocessed pixels.
To give it a more natural look - I cloned out the rope at the bottom and the irrigation pipe at the top.
I think I oversharpened the kanga trying to bring out the hair detail - its there in your original image I am sure.
I also reduced the border size as I found that it was distracting my gaze away from the principal object the Tree Kangaroo. But thats a matter of preference.
I also thought that the image overall was a bit dark - unless you have a calibrated monitor you can never be sure how an image is going to look on other people's monitors or what the base reference is.
Mine is calibrated although having said that I am having some minor problems but the problem is it is rendering things ever so slightly brighter than it should be.
Cheers Rally
