Auto level and auto contrast
Taken with a Nikon D50 and Nikon AF-S Zoom-Nikkor ED 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G DX (kit-lens)
There is a 'magic button' in Photoshop called 'auto levels' which you will find under the 'image' menu on the 'adjustments' sub menu.
Hitting 'auto levels' is always worth a try, it sometimes produces just the result you were looking for or, at least, a good place to start. If you don't like the result then hit the undo button on the edit menu and move on to plan B.
If you tried 'auto levels' and liked the overall brightness and contrast but the colour balance was worse than before then try 'auto contrast' instead. This does the same job as 'auto levels' but without altering the colour.
