...of about 30 people, in sunshine with kids and dog, what is the best
sequence of treatment?

1/ Crop to 6 x 4 ratio (A4 approx)
2/ Adjust levels,
3/ Dodge & burn pale/swarthy faces.
4/ Sharpen locally or totally.
5/ Annotate with text layer.
6/ Vibrance.

Is this OK? Also I have to graft myself into the picture so if I
just match head size is this OK?


Unless it's desperately important:

- Get it right first time so no post-processing required. Exposure bracket.

- Use a tripod and self-timer.
