You know you've been editing photos too long when
Discussion
The original deal was simply to put the images onto CD - but I shot a few NEF (which I'm now regretting because I forgot to change it back to JPG and have 80 of the bastards to mangle) and most of the rest benefitted from a tweak... 
like someone I know at a wedding on saturday). Are you allowed to post any pics for us to see?Dontcha just love it! 
I'm sticking with Raw Shooter, then. "Once you've got it fixed, don't break it" is my motto. I can manage a basic sift, sort and levels and colour balance to turn a batch of 120ish snaps into about 50 worthwhile images (TIFF or JPEG) ready to take further in PS within about an hour!
Or, take more time and do a bit of noise reduction too if necessary, play with hue and saturation a bit.
Just send the usual fee with that CD........

No, it's not right to put customer's photos on a public forum, although there'll be a few on my website eventually for agreed promotional purposes.
Hi John
Was great to meet you on Saturday ( it was my brother-in-laws wedding...), hopefully you enjoyed taking the shots. There were a few tired and jaded people on Sunday !
I'll probably post a few shots for commments by the PH school of photography when I've finished sorting them out (may take some time looking at the amount I took...)

Hi Ross
Me included!
I took over 400; I have about 120 left. I must say the top of your head photographs well

... you go into the kitchen and think 'I'll just give it a tweak in Levels...'
When I used to drive a lot every day, I found when I walked around people on the pavement in the High Street I used to look in the non-existant rear view mirror.....
Doing to much of anything is bad for your brain

yep... I also have done that (sad or what)
What I miss most in analogue life though, is an 'undo' button. I seem to have quite a few 'undo' moments.... like the time... (no, that's for another thread)
