Hi, there various ways to improve an image in GIMP. I recommend taking a look at this
tutorial which focuses on the different tools available in GIMP.
Since you are targeting the shadows and highlights, you should use the Dodge/Burn tool, a
luminosity mask, the Curves tool and also the Levels tool

It seems you like the edits101 web site. Why not just post a single thread in the tutorials section.
For this one, well the dodge / burn / sharpen tools are somewhat of a legacy from days gone-by. There are better options these days.
