Hello, retouchers. You've worked so hard to get an image retouched. Some of you (incl.me) spent hours in details, which cannot be seen in a first glance. Never mind. Why do you still keep on writing MY TRY in your posts. You do NOT try anything. "My try" is insulting - like you've tried, but things didn't come up well. This is your EDIT or your POST, not your try. TRY to think over it

I couldn't agree more. Well said. 👍🏻

I agree with you Emillio. I think the reason behind people putting "My Try" is due to criticism and critique. It's kind of a heads up to others that this is my interpretation so don't judge too harshly. It could also be a way of letting others know that there are things in my retouch work that could be better but I am not going to point it out unless it is brought up in critique. There are so many talented retouch artists all with a different eye for what they like and don't like. I tend to look at my photos over and over after retouching them and I always tend to find things that could be done differently or ways that the image could be improved. Sometimes it's just a matter of stepping away for a few hours or even a day and then reintroducing yourself to the image to see if anything changes in how you view your work.

you are free to intro your edit any way wanted but, I think you are reading too much into
a simple post heading. some do view it as an experiment of sorts.
