but I am sure there are people in the group who have better eye for post-proc than me (I am guessing emotic

)
Eh bro, don't say like that leh.. :embrass:
It just so happens that I've been using Photoshop since sch days till now hence the familiarity with the software.. And now I get to PP and shoot a fair amount of pictures for work..

And once you have PP basics, any PP software can do magic.. (Seriously, i'm not boasting)
And what about the eye? It takes time, patience and countless criticisms from bosses, colleagues, friends, to develop "The Eye" for detail.. There are some who are naturally-gifted, while most of us have to work abit harder to achieve it.. And even though criticisms/comments are subjective, any feedback rgding the basic techniques of photography should be taken seriously.. But never take anything personally.. So share and be enlightened..
So to all bros, always be your own harshest critic.. If you find your own image unacceptable or feel half-hearted about it, there's little or no chance of others liking it..
I agree about shooting in RAW.. JPG files are compressed so you lose details even if you shoot in Fine (Large).. So shoot in RAW.. Edited RAW files still maintain details, unlike JPG which lose details the more you edit..
I'll be more than happy to share whatever lil knowledge i have rgding Photoshop, DPP, some dirty PP tricks.. Too bad my laptop nearing expiry.. If not, i'll be able to bring it for the outing.. If anyone has any PP queries, do post it up here.. I bet there're many who can help..
Cheers and have a great weekend!
