This is a good insight to have Mario. It is important to have confidence in the data. The challenge with processing is knowing what the data is capable of and working within its bounds. As has been said before here, great data with great processing can provide an excellent image. Poor data with great processing can only provide a mediocre image. You end up spending more time attempting to hide the issues in the data when in reality you should be spending more time enhancing the data.

Ivo's rendition is an improvement on the original post. Keep at it. I like to think of it along the line of "We learn by doing, not by mistakes". Hope to see more of your work soon.
