> The secret to your desaturated high detail look is that CS5 users have an HDR toning image adjustment tool which will pretty much give you that look with a few clicks

I noticed that when I was looking at CS5, the HDR feature seems much better. I just ordered my legit copy of Photoshop CS5 last night for Mac, Im going to make the switch to an iMac next week.

> its pretty tough trying to replicate Sean’s work … i think you could jack the contrast a bit and if you use topaz adjust, crank the detail bar up + radius and then mask in the some of the extra detail … thats what i would try first

Thats kinda what I did, topaz adjust helped a little but in my eyes its not quite perfect or where I want it. I dont think I really want to exactly replicate Seans shots, some look a little overcooked and almost video game like, I just want a little more detail and some contrasty desaturation. It sounds so simple but it can drive me nuts lol.
