The original was, indeed, drab. Mark Roberts sent me a version he touched up. I've never done much with post-processing, but his version was =so= much better that it inspired me to take a careful look at Mark's and its histogram, then spend a while in Lightroom figuring out what he did (curves! gack!).

Thanks Mark!
