Now the dilemma: I'm dead tired last night, doing a bit of processing in PS. I'm done, and I'm closing up the computer to get ready for bed. I'm not really done with this photo, as I'm not quite satisfied as is. I hit "save", the computer asks if I want to save the changes to the photo, I say "yes", close PS, shut off the computer. I realize that I no longer have the original, as it's now been replaced by the "saved version". This is the version you see here. Now I'm kind of stuck with this resized version of a very grainy poorly cropped photo. I tried cropping it, but the loss of detail is more than even I could stand. So, what I want to know is: is there any way of retrieving the original photo, as it was out of the camera? Or did I completely pooch myself by hitting "save", instead of "save as" (in which I'd have created a new file, rather than replacing the original)? Aaaach! Thanks for comments wrt the photo, and suggestions (if any) as to the dilemma. cheers, frank ============= Nice one. Not unless you still have it on your card. Do this once and it's a live and learn experience. One has to be careful and use Save As rather than Save. Unless it was saved as a PSD rather than a RAW, which most Adobe programs will do by default (under certain situations). Go back and look.
