The only thing I did is adding +20 Contrast. I hope you like it. The colors are stronger and the "fog" in the picture is gone. What do you think?

Hi Bertrand,
your picture is very nice. i love the composition and the details, but imho, the colors were a little to smooth and little contrast. So this is what I did (roughly):
-5 Brightness
+20 Contrast
+30 Saturation
What do you think? I hope I didn't exaggerate...
cheers,
Martin

I saw Rob's workshop as well (before I uploaded this one but after I edited the image). In my eyes, I prefer stronger colors over details of the tractor. I hope you like this one too. roughly:
+15 Contrast
(-5 Brightness)
+15-20 Saturation
very little sharpnening

Please tell me what you think.

I really love this shot but I thought I could enhance it (in my eyes...). I cropped it a little on the left so that you can't see the leg anymore and I cut away some of the street on the bottom too to center the woman vertically. afterwards (roughly):
-5 Brightness
+10 Contrast
+15 Saturation
very little sharpnening

I hope you like my changes. What do you think?

I just removed the bars for this workshop. I kinda liked them because they frame the picture but many of you thought it is irritating so I posted this workshop.

I thought I could try to play around with this picture and in the end I thought I can also upload as a workshop. I hope you like it.
+10 Contrast
-10 Brightness
add some saturation
and use an unsharp mask to sharpen it a little too.
What do you think?

Ok this is my b&w version of your shot. Here are roughly what I did:
-30 in Brightness
+30 in Contrast
Hope you like it. It's quite strong, nearly no more grey but I like the oldish look it gets in my eyes.
