James,
grinding out 5,000 candids as well as 200 formals from the ARC National has turned me into a hermit. I think I've been outside twice since we returned home . The candids are easy to cull but hard to process since they were shot at 3200 ISO and all need to be Noise Ninja'd and color-balanced. The formals take a bit more time but since I went straight to prints instead of proofs, I was able to get them all out in less than a week. Now we're waiting for the $$$ to roll in. Uh, trickle in ? As everyone says, "the check is in the mail."
