What do you like about this subject? Retouching is a full-time adventure for me. I use Adobe Photoshop almost every day of the year and enjoy working with photos quite a bit. I do not shoot. I only work on photos that are already made.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field? To make clients and my students enjoy their photos and broaden their expectations of my abilities.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know: Almost EVERY photo you see published is retouched.

Something controversial or provocative about this subject It can be used to great advantages and great mischeif!

2008-10-01 New question (rose color correction): No problem. Let's start from the beginning. From now on, when you photograph roses, shoot one with flash and one without. Your D-70 has a respectable built-in flash. If you haven't tried it, now is the...
