For the sheer volume of my posts (141 in 2009 and 204 in 2010) and also for your patience in wading through my rhetoric LOL :)<br /><br />As far as my retouching is concerned, I've got a thirst that can't be quenched. My techniques and process changes on a weekly basis. I'm always looking for more and better ways to retouch. This includes a fair amount of experimentation!<br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />CharlesCharles Lucimahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13960242106614495688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6722364592267293957.post-68583822361340389142010-09-10T15:47:51.431-07:002010-09-10T15:47:51.431-07:00Actually, I think I'm answering my question by...Actually, I think I'm answering my question by reading your blog from the start! It's amazing how much you have improved since your beginning days!Brianhttp://www.freezerburrn.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6722364592267293957.post-72799111633624993392010-09-10T05:07:43.505-07:002010-09-10T05:07:43.505-07:00I don't think you're insane at all lol!
I...I don't think you're insane at all lol!<br /><br />Indeed, reality checks are good for the soul. Some of the people participating in that thread need one themselves! I honestly think some of the replies you got are from haters, wishing they could do what you do.<br /><br />Anyways, on another note I was wondering how you went about learning your retouching? My skills definitely need work.Brianhttp://www.freezerburrn.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6722364592267293957.post-17893120125991181292010-09-09T09:41:26.237-07:002010-09-09T09:41:26.237-07:00LOL!

I also know I'm a little crazy.<br /><br />While I concede that it's a good idea to "check your reality" now and then, I also think that it's wise to "qualify" the people doing the checking. If these people are well-versed in architecture, still-life, and landscape photography (and often times the same people are pixel-peepers), then perhaps they're not well-suited for providing feedback on portraiture, beauty, fashion, etc.<br /><br />Of course, I might be completely insane :)Charles Lucimahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13960242106614495688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6722364592267293957.post-70367987381648010412010-09-08T15:22:52.954-07:002010-09-08T15:22:52.954-07:00Interesting thread.

It is very inspiring to me and strive to be as good of a retoucher and photographer as you are.Brianhttp://www.freezerburrn.comnoreply@blogger.com
