The full workflow has six steps in four stages.
The first stage is the camera work with the pre-shoot and shooting work. Here I select the location, prepare camera and lenses and other gear. The location part includes camera settings and post-shoot the equipment care (cleaning, re-charging, etc.).
The second stage consists of the preparation and conditioning of the images. This is the first stage on the computer, here I transfer the files, view and rate them. The files selected for editing are copied to suitable working directory to keep the camera files intact. In this stage also the compositing takes place for multi-shot panoramas and HDR images. The compositing produces TIF files for the editing stage that otherwise works on camera raw files.
The third stage is the editing (primarily in CNX) to create the final image. Here I perform all the digital post-processing work, color and constrast adjustments, sharpening, correction of lens defects and various sorts of fine-tuning.
The last stage is the publication process that often includes a resize (for web) or color profile conversions. With a final uploading to Flickr or print services.
