I think that looks a ton better than the bright version. Perhaps see if Margie agrees?

I think attempt #1 is the better approach.

I'd make the people a little lighter (and increase the contrast for them so they don't look washed out) than shown above and probably show more of the wall and rail (whatever it is behind them).

Unscrap your first version :)

Thanks Jo Ann.. I think you are right.  My first attempt was on those lines and I scrapped it..
Back to the drawing board.

That's a tough one. I think the issue is that the background shouldn't be light - it should be dark. Think of how a flash picture looks when taken on a dark night.

I did a very quick-and-dirty version of what I think this needs on the original (and I can share the PSD file if you'd like, but the masks are not finish-quality!)

The only other approach might be to vignette it, but Margie'd have to say OK on something like that

See what you think

I don't think you can squeeze more info out of this photo.

Jo Ann Thanks you so much for taking the time to identify areas that needed fixing.  It helped me a lot.
