This thread is fabulous, some really great images. I agree it can be easy to get carried away in the post processing. Photography is all about the light for me, if it's not there there very little that can be done in post to improve it. FWIW my processing software of choice is Adobe Lightroom which can be used on desktop, phone or iPad.
