Eye burn out

[Az2Africa]

Maybe it's just me,( and I realize that results are subjective) but after looking at a photos long enough during prosessing, I reach a point where I am not sure if the colors look natural any longer to anyone else.Does that make sense? I think it looks good, but maybe I have stared at it too long and it won't look right to anyone else.Maybe I should paint one of my walls 18% gray and stare at it between adjustments:rolleyes: . Anyone have ideas to keep from over doing prosessing?

Yeah, chill out. Have a cup of tea. A beer. Whatever, but get away from the PC for 10 minutes.

Actually the gray walls and proper lighting will help with this problem, but the suggestions to take a break are good ones. It is not a unique problem. People actually halucinate when driving for long stretches at night and staring into oncoming headlights.
