Enhancing Pictures Using Photoshop

I found this video that shows you the steps on enhancing photographs. It's about 12 minutes and it shows some pretty easy things you can do to fix such things as shadows on a face and wrinkles.
Well worth a few minutes, even if you don't have photoshop you can apply some of these same techniques in many other programs.
I would love to see some before and after shots.

I think I am having with drawls! I haven't gone out an taken any photographs in weeks. The weather is so brutally cold I am afraid my camera might crack! LOL
And taking pictures inside seems a bit silly since the place looks like word war III start here.
