 In response to the requests for details of postprocessing...the steps were as follows.......
Increase contrast using levels..boost saturation slightly then sharpen using USM.
The softening was applied using "Neat Image". I tried various settings but felt that this shot benefitted from a full strength softening. This is often the case with shots of this nature which contain lots of foliage and tree bark.
It`s a technique which people seem to either love or loathe.
There`s nothing about the post processing that couldn`t be done by a complete beginner...the secret (if any) is judging the type of image which benefits from the treatment.

What an absolutely stunning photo! Thanks so much for including your post-processing steps. It sounds easy enough. I'm gonna have to give it a try.
