Raw Shooter Essentials, it's much better looking, without any Photoshop work before export as a TIKF. I recently started using ProPhoto color space in my work flow which seems to give better results, if I remember to convert the profile in Photoshop before output, so I changed back to the Adobe RGB profile and it made no difference. The last set of fireworks I processed, some time ago looked exactly the same when imported into Photoshop after conversion.
