My statement is not about composition or proper exposure.
It's about the PP steps of a RAW file to final product.
I can't believe anyone just shoots, re-sizes, converts to jpeg and uploads or prints.
Unless you are specifically going for a bland soft image.

I also think pro cameras do this by design. It's then your job in PP to take the image in the direction you desired.

I am just trying to find out what others are doing when they PP and specifically the order of those steps since I believe the order does effect the quality of the final product.

BlueRob, I'm a big fan of your photos. They are unique and esoteric. You can't tell me they just came out of your camera that way.
