If anyone can recommend any settings that I can try... I would appreciate it.

Very nice Skene! They look great to me. Imagine what you will be doing once you get to know your new toy.

If your versed in PS Ron try using the curves tool. And shooting with a DSLR you can bump the saturation 8-12 on the slider. Digital sensors tend to be flat in the saturation department.

Here's a quick pass w Curves, Unsharp mask and a bit of saturation. GLW the camera!

I need time to play around with all of this.. so far I've only logged in about 50 mins into it.. and it's my first time playing with a raw image. I am more used to image manipulations using ps... rather than color manipulation.
but I'll check it out Bobby.
