Frog - I think there is a link to this thread in the welcome thread within the Viewfinder Forum.

chaman - thank you very much for the kind words. Yes, every single image I take has to be massaged out with post processing. Camera RAW (without any camera processing) is an ugly thing to behold but contains the most amount of data because it hasn't been processed. Like peeling away the layers of an onion, one has to process the data until just the right amount of onion is visible.
