Nice shot, and very nice post-processing.
Good post-processing requires subtlety and a good eye. (Oh, and a calibrated monitor and a good scanner.) Thanks to Highway61 for reminding us to aim for high standards!

Highway 61, curious about the "downsizing in several steps". Have you verified that this is indeed superior to downsizing in one step?

I've never tried it. But I'm theorizing, possibly the applying "downsize sharper" several times is in effect very similar to applying a small abount of global sharpening.

I have used the bicubic setting, and it may still be my default. Thanks for the tips.
