How not to hide

Photo geekery details:

- I wanted to experiment with a wider gamut, given how rich the colours are in this image. So, this photo has an embedded profile for Adobe 98 instead of the usual sRGB. This might look bad on some browsers. Others, like Safari, should display everything colour-corrected -- it should look like it does for me in Lightroom.

- I think this image is nice balance between file size and detail for online viewing. I've been uploading images that are too big, I think.

- I'm paying more attention to the white vs. black point to maximize the amount of information in the lights. This is essentially my new "over-expose and then tweak contrast and saturation to get the colours back" method I'm trying. Which is pretty much the opposite of film, and something I never really understood until 5 minutes ago. Live and learn.

- Sharpening is bog-standard Lightroom portrait preset.

- Now, all I need is to automate this workflow (workslow?) and I can get the other 600 photos up in no time :)
