Discuss.... With tongue in cheek, let me ask, "how authentic are the buildings of NYC when tilted 30 degrees counter-clockwise?" When did voluptuous become voluminous?

Art is very subjective and as such, it is up to the artist (photographer) to decide how his art will be prepared for viewing. Having a camera makes you no more a photographer than having a hammer and some nails makes you a carpenter - Claude Adams

Nathan Can you repeat the question, please?  More info | Jul 11, 2008 17:13 | #35 Photography is an interpretation of reality; reality is perception. Post processing can reveal visually one person's perception of reality in a way in which you might not otherwise have seen. The talent of the photographer is not in how he takes the photo or in how he processes his image. The talent of the photographer is seeing the art where others do not. Taking photos with a fancy camera does not make me a photographer.

airfrogusmc I'm a chimper. There I said it... More info | Photoshop is a completion of your vision. If your not using some form of it you are cheating your vision. Its a digital darkroom and only you know how the finished photograph is suppose to look.
