At this point the image starts to come alive. There is a lot more variation in the colors. The barn is looking redder. The individual leaves of grass and the vegetation in the trees is more differentiated.

You should experiment with just how much steepening you use in this step. Initially, try values between 10% and 20%. Eventually, you'll be able to estimate good values just by looking at the original.
