Which side of the fence do you sit and by how much and why? Lets say plus 90 degrees is "ultimate" implying lots of effort going from raw with PS, GIMP, ImageMagick, RawTherapee, et al. By the opposite token, minus 90 degrees is OOC JPEG with no post-processing at all. Which puts "the fence" at zero degrees. (I like angular measure, LOL.)
I sit at around plus 40 because noise doesn't bother me much and neither do area contrasts where others might dodge or burn ad nauseam. Neither does stuff like power poles which others might clone out.
However I do sit in the positive half - mainly due to being a bit obsessive about detail.
Comments welcomed, of course!
