What is occurring to me is that most of the time I shoot for myself, even if Im shooting for someone else. If I had a specific assignment to shoot something that required fiddling alter I could certainly shoot raw. but basically I just dump the shots that don't work. MOst of the time, the shots that don't work are either that they were not of any interest to being with (even though I thought they were!) or the are lousy because of camera shake, motion blur or DOF problems. I'm happier trying to make all necessary adjustments, so to speak, when I'm shooting so I don't have to spend even more time in front the the computer than I do have to spend out of necessity now. ann
