poor focus choice, over saturated, boringinstead of going mmm saturation, try adjust the mid tones darker with the levels tool, gives a similar and better effect.
For the OP's sake I hope this was a troll.You should have bought a D40, BTW.
ISO 1600???Why?
You can get a better boost to color using the channel mixer rather than saturation.
