Well, you could cheat and increase the saturation in Photoshop to intensivy the colours but these are natural anyway, those photo's often have exposure settings or filters that enhance the colours of an otherwise dull scene anyway, so this may be more "real" in terms of colours

i suppose i could adjust some of the colors in PS but i think the texture would still throw it off. i usually do adjust my artwork slightly because my scanner takes so much of the color away...i simply add it back. ^^
thanks for the advice, i really appreciate it!
