Ok, I'll tell my secrets.  For almost all my renders, I take them into
Photoshop.  I duplicate the image so I have two identical layers, and then I
set the top layer's blending mode to "overlay."  I then apply a very slight
blur and adjust the opacity to taste.  It's a simple technique that goes a long
way to add depth and mode to a scene.
