Editing and processing has been done since photography began, and was a common procedure that many of the great masters have used to expand beyond reality and create a new reality on the photo paper.
Now let’s bring digital into the scene…
From one captured image is now possible to create, within seconds, a multitude of different photos just with a few clicks of the mouse.
For the purists, a deadly photographic sin. For others, an opportunity for explosive creativity.
How far can an image be edited and processed and still be considered photography? And in which situations can an altered image be used?
In this episode of PhotoNetCast we discuss this, and more.
