Linda,

May I suggest that you take some photos in the RAW format to just play with. You'll find that it isn't as intimidating as you might think. It offers you several buttons and scales to play with (not all of them would be widely used by a portrait artist) and any changes you make never change the original.

Of course you can always stay in the jpeg format and any changes you make you can perform a "save as" which also will leave the original untouched. But then you'd miss all of the fun with the RAW format.

I'll add that the RAW format is much larger.
