I think we should make a forum section for this, after seeing the last thread, that looked like fun! I have a picture I took (in Italy as well) that I think has potential, but for some reason bores me. What would you professional Photoshoppers do to this picture? (Yeah....taking out the time stamp would help...I realized that.;)

I would crop the hazy skyline out. Focus on the main circle and get rid of all that faded looking backround.

Oh so don't keep the sky? I was thinking of making it more blue...but cropping it sounds like a better idea, since most of Rome is faded. Mind you this was taken with a Sony DSC-W1 almost 2 years ago =p.

Crop some of the sky, apply levels, color sat, and a bit of sharpening. There's still some leftovers of the time stamp but I didn't have time to remove it all.

You didn't indicate "Image Editing OK" but I did anyway, hope you didn't mind

You haven`t got image editing OK bellow your avatar but i presume it is,once you are asking for help.
Now,this is a very small file to work from but here is one take...
