Default POP adjustment.. a subtle change

i took this some time ago and have just tried to "fix" it because it was very dry/dead in the foreground and the bird wasnt as saturated as i'd like.

u used burning & darken tool mostly on the background, a litte saturation adjustment too. and a burn over the bird to make it pop out more..

-i deliberatley went for the "subtle" change

BEFORE



AFTER
