Two books I recommend reading:
by Jay Dickman. The first half is about shooting. The second (and for me the more interesting) part is about digital darkroom.
. This book has a lot of good info on how to enhance color and detail. I really love this book.
I'm not sure where I came across the technique for adding a small amount of color to a desaturated or sepia image, but over the last year or so, it's the one "style" I keep returning to, even after dabbling with Orton, Lomo faking, etc.

Here's a variation on that first image that I processed for HDR. This time with the sepia/soft light colorization, and lens correction.
