All of the post was done in Aperture 3 then brought into Photoshop for the final touches. Shot on the Canon 5D mkII with a 50mm f/1.4 for the sharpness.
Interesting. Do you use any plugins for your Photoshop or aperture? I have exactly the same camera and lens... I don't think the RAW is that sharp/crisp. haha

Yes, the zoom version does this a lot better justice.

WOW, the image is so crisp! I wonder what kind of post-processing allows you to have such sharpness? Do you increase the sharpness in Lightroom 3?

No plugins, just standard curves and some sharpening in post.
