Above Expectation. ~98% of polled attendees.

My workflow has changed tremendously, and for the better, since taking Nat's PhotoShop 101 class. I now have more control over my editing process, which is more streamlined. I practice "non-destructive" editing as well thanks to some tips given by Nat, and I now feel competent enough to shoot entirely in RAW. ~Sheba W.
