I agree that spending that kind of time on a photo sucks, but I do tend to focus more on quality over quantity so for that particular shoot I had about 400 shots and I'll process between 1 to 3 on average. <br /><br />Set to a different standard (i.e., photojournalism), I could probably consider 60% of them keepers - especially with just 5 minutes of Lightroom adjustments.<br /><br />FWIW, the big time drain on this one were the eyes, teeth and the mask for the tonal contrast on the dress. Excluding that cost, it's about 10 minutes of work much of which is waiting for Photoshop to save the big files that get created (this ended up at 900MB).ronmartblog.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06815090271742112506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5826231802859523569.post-79748964933703908262011-01-06T16:21:14.499-08:002011-01-06T16:21:14.499-08:00Hi.

Coming for a primarily "street style" of photography, I can't help but flinch at the thought of spending 90 minutes to edit one image. Of course I know I'm woefully ignorant to what is done for magazines, etc, but this is just my 3 cents worth (accounting for inflation!). I know this is an "apples to oranges" comparison, so please don't boo me too badly! :)fceexp1noreply@blogger.com
