Enhance your digital pics
Before you edit your digital photos, create copies of them. That way, you can always revert to the original version if
something goes awry in the editing process. This is especially important if you work with photographs in the JPEG format,
as opposed to RAW. With JPEG, each time you save the image, a slight degradation occurs. Keeping the original is akin to
keeping a negative in the old film days.
