I'm my own worst critic and a pretty ruthless one at that. My editing is pretty harsh and goes something like this: "crap, crap, crap, crap, meh, crap, WHAT WAS I DOING?, good, crap, crap, good, good, crap..." what I consider crap, others may consider "good enough." For example, if something isn't perfectly sharp where I want it to be perfectly sharp, it doesn't get a second chance, regardless of the subject (unless it is a super rare species and I won't get another chance to photograph it). -- Christian http://photography.skofteland.net -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
