Words of a wise man. I am going home straight after work, and going to do the "workflow".

You'd laugh if you saw my 'workflow'.

1. shoot a metric butt-tonne of photos
2. toggle between them and pick the best one for each shot. mostly check and pray one is mostly in focus
3. open in photoshop and do the following to every one:

3a. auto colour
3b. auto contrast
3c. auto tone

photoshop allows you to fade from 0 - 100% the effect of each of these. sometimes a command totally messes with the shot and you don't apply it at all.

3d. sharpen
