Thanks. Yes, it was tweaked a little. Here's what I did:

1. slight curve correction.
2. masked the lenses and ///M badge so I could leave them colored while everything else was B&W.
3. clone stamped to get rid off all the moths that had landed on my rear windshield.
4. resized image.
5. unsharp mask to get back some sharpness after resizing.

I typically do a little color correction using curves even with my L-series lens. I do find that not as much is needed w/ the L lens, though. I would also do steps 4 & 5 regardless of the lens I used. Step 3 is done as needed. Step 2 was just an artistic thing. I guess I'm basically saying that I didn't do those things, which wasn't much work, specifically because I had used the kit lens.
