I don't really understand this, Richard. Photoshop is our modern
darkroom. Even in a traditional darkroom one would piddle and fiddle
around with a print until it was just right.

If you haven't learnt the techniques that Photoshop offers and if you
haven't used them, you are doing too little,  not too much.

I haven't learnt them all either, but I keep trying; little by little,
same way as in the darkroom.

Best,
Daniel
