I think the shot is overexposed. Not badly, mind you, but a bit. The 
full pixel sample definitely has some cropped highlight detail. It's 
close enough that if shot in RAW, it could be fully recovered.

Even in JPEG, rebalancing the exposure and overall contrast and playing 
with the contrast in the high end can pull all sorts of detail out to 
where it's visible and give the images a little pop. I didn't get the 
lower left of the full frame shot quite right, but I'm not going to bust 
a get getting a little JPEG perfect 
<cid:part1.03070108.08090802@moosemystic.net>.

Overall, a pretty impressive example.
