Description

I adjusted the picture in Photoshop. First added some brightness and contrast but the picture got all "foggy". Tried the Levels instead and moved only the slide in the middle to make the picture brighter. Then I made a decision not to adjust the color balance. Looked good as it was but added some saturation...max +15. Then resized it and sharpened it using the smart sharpen option. Didn't know about this feature but tried it and think it's a lot better/easier then the Unsharp mask. Had to merge all the layers before the sharpening phase though but I guess you always have to do that.

Exif: F Number: 5.6, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/100 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 100, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 40.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 60D

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
