Lee, our reviews are a joint effort between my husband and me. He takes a ridiculous number of pictures; 5,000 between us on this cruise with about 95% his. When we get home, he starts writing the review and I start going through the pictures. I delete some, straighten and crop others, etc. Then I proofread the review and add my comments while he pulls out the pics he wants to use and makes any adjustments. This process goes back and forth until we are satisfied with the commentary. Then while he inserts the pics in the review and puts the final polish on it, I start doing the photo albums. They allow us to show pics from the review in a larger format, plus show pics that we didn’t use in the review. It’s a long drawn out process, but it is a cooperative effort. I don’t want to sound like I’m bragging or anything like that, so please don’t misunderstand my intent. I would never be able to do such an in depth review on my own, and Mike deserves the major credit.
