While I still continue to take one day seminars and some local classes, I am hooked on internet classes. They are reasonably priced, offer flexible times and can often be reviewed (the videos) multiple times so I can "get" it.
My goal these past few months was to learn some new software and really improve my photoshop skills. I have learned some new "tricks" to fix photos and also create photo collages.
My go to techniques in photoshop have helped me to process my images better. I find that I am constantly enhancing the images by using high pass to sharpen them and adjusting the levels and curves. I do feel it makes the difference between and good photo and a great one.
Below is an example of the same photo with some very simple processing.

I like your description of yourself as the "perennial student." It makes me think of you as continuing to bloom every year. :) Internet classes make learning so accessible and convenient, don't they? It's an amazing development in education that really benefits the adult learner. Your image is wonderful!
