Since I am going through a &#8220;monochromatic&#8221; phase, when I set Chit-Chit up, I was imagining the final outcome of the image. Playing with dodging and burning, I&#8217;ve created drama, depth, and character to the plain ordinary backyard-lit photograph!

Phaseone CaptureONE PRO 5.1 gets a 4/5 rating from me, but deducting a point for:
Spot/Dust Tool &#8220;Clumsy&#8221;. Would like the ability to resample and pick a source similar to ACR. Keyboard control to increase/decrease the radius. Right-click delete instead of deleting it from the tool panel.
Sharpening in Web Contact Sheet. An option to disable sharpening ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My little birdy source was correct about the release of CaptureOne PRO 5.1. I bought into CaptureOne because of how &#8220;right off the bat&#8221; my RAWs looked w/o doing additional edits since their PRO 3.7.8.

		<description><![CDATA[Personal Project has been helping me improve direction at eliciting erotic undertones. My mainstream work with agencies on my website, www.ronaldntan.com, is considered tame compared to the images from Personal Project.
I know Personal Project is in its infancy, but I am hoping it would evolve into a photographic anthology recording my progress and comfort levels.

People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered;
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind,
people may accuse you of selfish ulterior motives;
