Great post. I am hopefully going to take some digital shots at the Texas Flower Gardens on the first weekend of March, so some editing tips in PS will help! Also if you want to have more control over the levels you can manually adjust them instead of doing auto levels. It gives you a little more control. You just go to Image>Adjustments>Levels. From the pull down menu will say RGB. You might notice a mountain like graph. If there are large blank spaces on each side of the mountain do the following:

From the pulldown menu select the Red Channel click and hold down the down left triangular arrow . Drag that arrow just as the curve is going up the "mountain". Take the right triangular arrow and do the same. Do this with the Blue and the Green Channel and you will have some color correction.
