Quote: photo's are becoming very similar and over-saturated

I agree, it does seem that less processed images are seen as not "well" processed now. Not by everyone of course but it feels that way to me. It's important to me to retain a less processed look in my work.

I shoot totally digital now. My film cameras are sat on the shelf and I have film, I just don't use them anymore. Mostly due to the time of developing compared to processing digital. I would love to have one last go in a darkroom though there is nothing like seeing that print appear on paper.

This is what I felt about your recent upload. The detail is there to extend the processing but it would give a less genuine impression of character.

I think that there are levels of processing that can produce a strong image and bring out the character of the shot, but it needs an intelligent approach that retains the integrity of the shot.

It is important to keep producing what you are happy with.
