Yours, especially, but also Nathan's and Jay's, to name just 2. I mentioned the issue with the colors, only because I felt there was something amiss with what I thought the public at large would have seen. Now that I understand the point of showing the particular pictures for content and comsposition, I understand that my comment was out of place. I apologize for interfering with your image flow. Please do not stop posting: Viewing them is my way of going with you, vicariously, to many parts of the world I will never see. Frank Filippone Red735i at verizon.net But now it doesn't look like dawn which was the whole point to me. I have fallen into the trap, again, of trying to adjust my photos to please everyone. I will never get through 16,000 edits at this rate. Right now, all I am doing is going through the photos as quickly as I can and selecting those which might merit more detailed work later. I hit Auto in LR to get in the ballpark. LR adjustments are non-destructive and I can go back to the untouched photo at any time. I post the ones I am considering and hope for comments on the content and/or composition. Anything to do with white balance, exposure, lifting shadows, suppressing highlights, contrast, spotting, sharpening can and will be done much later, after I have finished all of the editing. Maybe I should just post the photos straight from LR with no adjustments at all? Or maybe I should just not post them at all. It's too discouraging and demoralizing. Thank you, Tina
