Does too!

Yes I do. It's just that after you've stared at an image for so long the defects and the big picture can become invisible. If not that, then a fresh eye can often spot other ways to optimise an image.

It's not really a search for perfection, although my wife tells me I obsess sometimes. It's about getting it to the sweet spot where you believe there's nothing more that can be done to improve it. Posting an intermediate step like I did here is sharing the journey and I think that's good, even though some may be tempted to critique it as though it was a final! When I do my final colour version I will obsesss, I promise!
