Joe,
Amazing what a difference just a little tweak, like the "Magic Auto Contrast" button in Picasa can do, isn't it? I know it won't do everything that Photoshop and some other editing software will do, but it's quick, it's easy to use, and it gives pretty dang good results. Even the "Magic Auto Color" button does a great job of correcting color balance, IMO. I also have Paint Shop Pro X, but it's cumbersome and honestly does not do as well as Picasa in some areas. To be fair, PSP does do several things very well that Picasa does not do at all, but I'm sure that future updates will address some of those issues.
Oh, and btw, for anyone else reading this, it's a FREE DOWNLOAD. If you are shooting digital and not using anything to edit your photos, you owe it to yourself to at least TRY Picasa. You'll be amazed at the difference it can make. If you don't believe me, just look at what Joe did to the MK/Monorail shot above.

Thanks for the info. I got home and downloaded Picasa. It's a great tool for photo editing.
