Default How to fix this image

Hello All,

After a long time we were able to get together for a family photo, but when I asked my friend to take the picture, he took the picture which I am not happy about with the colors. I am new to photoshop and trying to learn how to fix the photos. In the mean time I wanted to take help of good guys here to know how I can fix the image and what techniques to use. I am trying to take a 16*20 poster print of the image.

I could not upload the image as it was aroudn 12 mb, the image is available in NEF format at www.shravan.org/_DSC6170.zip

Any help is appreciated here. Thank you in advance for all your anticipated help.

Thank you
N

are you looking for something like this?

123 (1 of 1)

I lowered the exposure in the sky, and brought it up in the foreground. I boosted the saturation slightly, and added a light vignette. Im wondering why this photo was taken at iso 3200 and f20 rather than a lower iso/wider aperture. this would have made the photo much less grainy. im by no means a professional, i just do what looks good to me.
