Vivid Dream
I personally love this look for photos. I have experimented with several similar ways to achieve something of this nature. This weeks 2 Minute Photoshop Tricks podcast shared a great method for this. The photos above show the results. The left is straight out of my camera and the left is following the podcast 100%.
To summarize the steps:
1. Open image
2. Duplicate image on new layer.
3. Change copy's layer blend mode to "Multiply"
4. Create a Levels adjustment layer and move white and maybe grey arrows to the left to desired light levels.
5. Add a Gaussian blur of about 25 to the copy layer.
6. Add a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer and increase the Saturation to about 25.

What a podcast can do.. You couldn't have done it just with levels and curves, it is splendid: apply image (multiply a copy)is better to get a nice contrast
