to a certain extent ...
my workflow:
1) Rating system in Adobe Bridge CS4 to help eliminate bad photos
2) Flawless, 5 star photos will be opened up in camera RAW, retouched to remove dust spots if any
3) Grayscale/duotone/tritone conversion in Camera RAW
4) Curves, split toning in Camera RAW
5) Color enhancements in Camera RAW
my ideology .. take great photos, and if they can be better presented or more visually attractive with enhancements, go for it
i don't believe in bringing flawed photos back from the dead :nono:
