Uh, I don't know. I try to keep the lens clean...I'm using an LX3, rather than a SLR. I have not done more than adjust the exposure and the tone curve on these. A little saturation...no photoshop though.
Ah, I see. I thought it was an SLR as well. As you can see in my profile pic, SLR's produce more of an old school film like picture. It looks great and the detail is amazing but I sometimes find that regular cameras produce more 'crisp' colors.
Interesting...are you shooting RAW images? The first thing that jumps out to me on your profile pic is that it seems a bit underexposed. If you are shooting RAW (and maybe other formats like jpg, I'm not sure) you can adjust the exposure in your software to brighten up the image a bit. Then again, maybe you prefer it that way.
In my shooting I've been working on trying various exposures...often I'll shoot on program but change the exposure or take multiple exposures of a picture. On this recent trip I also took multiple exposures of certain images and plan to combine the images later in photoshop to create a high contrast image.
