Easily improved. Part of the problem in the leaves is the lack of tonal
detail separation in the highlights, part the need for final sharpening
at display size. I brought up the shadows just a bit, to give the grapes
in shade some definition and stretched down the highlights to get some
tonal definition in the very bright parts of the leaves. Then I did a
little light sharpening. I think it also improves the grapes, with more
tonal subtlety and a more 3D look.
I've added the alternate to the gallery on my site. Choose one, then the
other and you can then use the Alt-Arrow keys to shift back and forth
like a roll-over.
