Yes, your workflow shows its benefits. Its nice to see the concise history, and the results.
Tell me, though - you sharpened at the outset. Other commentators say to sharpen last. Why did you do what you did? Why do they say to do what they do?

I sharpen first as I think it gives me a better insight to fixing problems within an image when the image has good definition to begin with.

That worked well and is a big improvement Dick. Thanks Paul I think I could lessen the saturation a bit for a more natural look. Try this one  dick |

Dick - nice photo - I'm not sure which version I prefer, though. They both have something to offer.
