Also, you can adjust the contrast/brightness if it gets to dark when you are doing adjustments.  Keep up the good work!!!!!!!    :D[/quote]

Or you can just use the Levels adjustment (ctrl+L) or better yet use a levels layer and do it right...  Brightness/Contrast is for total newbz.  I didn't mess with the legs over the border deal because that was already taken care of... and I'm a little lazy.  I also duplicated the layer, set to overlay mode and masked out a few things here and there to bring back shadows in a few spots.  My Levels layer was the top layer and where I did masking.

I aint down with blurry images so I didn't bother with that... to each their own :)
