Don I do just the basic editing on most of my photos, although my basic editing maybe just a little different to most people.

All my photos are shot in Raw, this is something I've done since owning the Minolta D7 Autumn 2001. Having used just about all the raw convertors out there, I've settled on Rawshooter Premium , then transfer to PS CS2.

It's very rare that I alter the WB, both my Canons are set to AWB, so it's just slight tweaks in Rawshooter usually with a slight touch on the Enhance button.

In PS, more often than not I select Levels>>Options and use the default of "Enhance Per Channel Contrast" I then sharpen my pics by creating a Background copy in layers, select the High Pass filter and set the filter at 10-12 pixels Use a blend mode of "SoftLight" with the opacity set to approx 70%. That's about it.
Obviously there are exceptions but these are very rare.

Harry
