No, not at all. We have been chuckling whenever thought about it. goodgirl touches up her stuff and got me to start doing it on some stuff when I have time to play. That is not very often.
As I recall, I played with this one.
But yeah, I take thousands of quick shots at a show. I have to go through and make sure I delete the blurry ones and the ones I know people are going to hate of themselves. I don't have time to adjust them. Believe me, my goal is to some day just take the pics and have someone else do all the work. Until then, it is what it is. Come to think of it, the only photos I touch up are for GotBaddog.com or one of the others. If I have a photo from say a London sight that I put on PimpsPromo.com, I might touch it up and put it on GotBaddog.

I have to squeeze off well over a thousand images in a 4 hour time period. Getting the exposure spot-on really is not optional. If I ever told a client I didn't have time for that, my replacement would be ready to take my place in about 10 seconds.  |
I would like to see you do that at a show or on a busy street. If you think your studio posed shooting is anything like what people like JFK, Mikeb, me or any event photographer does, you are seriously mistaken. FYI, these newfangled cameras have an auto function. They work most of the time.
The photo that barcodes touched up was taken on a busy street, with the sun directly in her face with a flash unit that I have to take off and on every 10 seconds it seems. The boot sucks. When it doesn't sit right it over exposes. I have deleted more photos for that reason than you can imagine. However, sometimes you have to weigh the overall photo and what it represented. Pretty sure Karen would rather I had not deleted it. I have the original, if I feel so inclined I could touch it up.
I do not even want to do what you do as a photographer. I'd be surprised if you could do what I do with what I have. Just saying.
