Hi Some help needed

Hi all
I'm new here
Can I ask for some advice on how to enhance this pic please. I've got Photoshop and can find my way around it, but I'm not an expert. I've tried the fill in flash and that seemed quite good, but looking at some of the answers to questions below you guys all know your stuff and go into far more depth..

Just wondered what the usual thought processes were and how you approched things.
I don't need to go too mad but would like the end picture to be A4 size and not look to bad.
Thanks
Rob

Hopefully this works. Full res image hosted here

Crop. Shadow/Highlight (not one I like - usually perform similar at RAW stage), clone out corner grass, sharpen

Re: Hi Some help needed

Just a quick go........

(1) Cropped.

(2) Auto Levels.

(3) Lightened it up in Curves.

(4) Created a new Layer and used the Shadow/Highlight on the car only.

(5) Sharpened with a little extra selective sharpening on the car.

Re: Hi Some help needed

Hiya

Great, thanks, that just the sort of steps I was looking for.
Was that on the lower res version in the post too?
The chap in the Nav seat is a whizz in photoshop but he's up to his neck in other artistry so didn't want to bother him at the mo. He's now asked for the full res version now though so hopefully he'll get time otherwise I'll have crack myself.

Thanks again
Rob
