Original
Retouched
To make this shot perfect, I decided to crop it down, make it a little tighter. I also took out the chair legs in the upper-left hand corner, they just didn't feel right. In retrospect, I should have zoomed in a little and made the shot tighter when I actually took it, or moved the chairs out of the way.
I increased the exposure and contrast a little bit, darkening the blacks, and bringing up the highlights. The original picture is kind of flat, very little contrast. I think the retouched photo shows more contrast and has more tonal range.
