I go both ways on this. When photographing an event, I shoot for final
product with the goal being zero post-production requirement. Life is
too short to screw around with 1500 pictures. I might do some mass
adjustments and fix obvious flubs, but that's about it. Portrait
photography involves a little more editing, but I try to get it right
in the camera.
On the other hand, with the artsy stuff, I'm as likely to borrow
Moose's neon glasses and harangue the poor pixels to death. Those that
don't voluntarily leave, I'll crop out. However, I do not do that much
cropping because I compose the image to what I see in the viewfinder.
Only on rare occasions have I ever visualized an image that goes
against what I see in the viewfinder.
In the darkroom, I do tend to do a lot more cropping, but that's
mostly because I'm technically forced to do some cropping (rebate
removal) and I lose control and end up not knowing when to stop.
