Plenty of data but the image seems overdone as previously stated, how does the final histogram look.

Its all about colour balance, levels and making sure that histogram looks like a bell curve without clipping.

I always try and look at images previously posted too see what the pro's have done and then emulate there's to achieve as noise free, colourful image with a smooth background as possible and it's difficult to get it just right

Also read a lot, try different free software packages etc, there are stacks of articles out there that can help (or confuse).

Just keep out it it'll all come together eventually
