Shot with a K5 set on JPEG which means very little post processing. I've never made a RAW image...and have had perhaps 800 images sold/published (in print media--I don't count web stuff). I choose old-school instead...every image shot from a tripod at the lowest ISO setting the camera can produce and I bracket white balance when it's tricky. Usually use mirror lock up and 2 sec. delay to take my vibes out of it. I never shoot mid-day or in full sun. I play it as if shooting picky slide film and throw away anything that isn't nearly perfect as shot. I don't "rescue" missed images. A miss is a miss for me. Of course, I understand virtually nobody on a photo forum does it my way, but I don't mind that.
