Personally, I am always open with creativity when it comes to present my photos. But most of the time I will just play with light and color adjustments. How about you?

For me, every image is different.
I have a basic work process that I usually run through which is cleaning up the image, tone, colour and adjustments like dodging/burning and final colour grading, but a lot of the time I have no specific post processing in mind, sometimes just letting the image take me wherever it goes.

Agree . Every photo has its own characteristic.

I don't use "a recipe" for my photo's.
I'll let it depend on what I think the photo needs, and if I think it's worth the effort.

Your photos are wonderful. Do you print your photos too?

I see it like Andy Smith. I've my basic adjustments in LR and Topaz Studio later on in Photoshop, but mostly I don't manipulate the photos too much. Apart from my mushroom photography of course or some artificial flower photos.
