Looks like a bit of Saturation boost and a tine amount of sharpening. Do you think the processing created this image. I think it was created when the shutter was pressed. Good pictures don't need much processing.

I love so much about this photo - mainly the predominance of Red and the blurred background.

Really really nice image.
