    Can you supply shooting information (camera/lens/aperture/ [you know the drill] ) for us office-constrained-EXIF-challenged people. Thanks.

    Thanks for your compliment Socrate
    I'm usually concerned about not blowing out the whites in PP since I work with two computers and screens. Sometimes what looks fine on one is either too light or too dark on the other. At this point I'm considering some serious calibration to eliminate this variable.
