Advanced Editing. Show the best post processing (PP) of an image and include its unprocessed original side by side as a diptych. In the photographer's notes describe what steps/software you used in PP and why you made those choices.

It is essentially a free study with a twist. The aim is to learn the importance of PP in modern digital photography. Some DPCers do outstanding work in PP, it would be their showcase.

We already have Expert Editing challenges as a showcase for PP maniacs.

I say no.

I think it sounds interesting and something I could learn from.

I agree, but part of me would like this challenge just to submit a RAW and along with it's minimal editing equivalent. Oh, wait, it's the same image. Well, at least you know which one would be mine beforehand.

Thank you Margaret for your fine suggestion.
It sounds like a very good idea to me and I for one am glad that someone has something worth saying around here.

I really like the idea... but IMO the image width would have to be increased substantially to make it worthwhile. Otherwise they would be just too small.
I think a challenge like this, especially running under Advanced, has the potential to generate a lot of discussion and debate about post-processing techniques. That can only be a good thing.

Great suggestion. With, as Kirbic brought up, an increased size limit special rule. Advanced for sure, NOT expert.
