[QUOTE="Clovishound, post: 819739, member: 50197"] These days post processing is normally considered part of the overall process of taking a photo. Trying to get it as perfect as possible in camera is a great goal, but don't neglect the editing. Often, even minimal editing can make a big difference. A lot of us shoot in RAW. That has the advantage of providing more latitude post processing. RAW images are basically designed to be edited after the fact. This is no different than shooting with negative film in the old days. Good printing was a necessity of the process, and prints were made using adjustments for proper exposure, contrast, hue, etc. The main difference now is the flexibility and ease of post processing. Of course, in the end you have to develop your own style and preferences in how you shoot and how you process. Follow your instincts, but keep them informed by listening to and evaluating advice from others, and from research from good sources. [/QUOTE]
