Colour and contrast adjustments in lightroom, skewed in PSE, cropped, resized and sharpened. Tried to work with the muted look and mood of the original.

Looks really good, in a bizarre. puffer-fish kind of way!

I prefer Lightroom noise reduction to Topaz Denoise, but perhaps it's just me not doing it right? I prefer a little grain to over-smoothed shots, and I can't see a vast improvement over the in built noise reduction in PSE.

I have FocusMagic which is great at reducing movement blur (including K7 shutter blur when it pops up) and sharpening focus slightly.

I forgot about that one, was meaning to watch it. Will have to download it! Excellent documentaries at the moment, the series on british prehistory is really interesting too.

Yep, in fact at 5 quid a pop, why bother with a car charger? Just buy lots of spare batteries...

Ken makes a good point about charge time!

Car charger would make sense if you are on an extended tour or safari, but you may as well get a DC-AC inverter.

Worst accessory? Cokin 'Sunset' filter (lol). It was a freebie.

I also have a Cokin 'Starburst' filter
