Default Colour enhance calendula
So far, in my adventures with PS CS2 I've mainly used basic enhancements with levels and curves, and applied some selective colour as per a tutorial I read. This time I've "fifddled" so would be grateful for advice as to how I might improve. Before is first image. Thanks.

f/8.0, shutter 10.0, iso 200, 50mm f/1.8, tripod.

Personally I like the enhancement which brings out a more natural green in the foliage and warms the composition just enough for taste.

Thanks - I'm a little concerned I might have caused "noise" (I think that's the name) and that my eye won't pick it up.
