You know, a short primer on photography and what it takes to make a picture, from seeing something, to camera settings, to snapping a picture, to processing, to posting and printing would be great.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02236449128797878326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9493601.post-1142868574966210362006-03-20T10:29:00.000-05:002006-03-20T10:29:00.000-05:00These last two photos have, frankly, lost me.

These two, however, are removed from reality and while they may leave much to the viewer, they leave too much to him.<BR/><BR/>Photography should have some connection to reality. Yes, the scene may be filtered to show different light, as earlier photographers did. Yes, the photo may be doctored and edited with Photoshop, as current photographers do. In the end, however, the photo should, I believe, reflect reality and not be so devoid and detached from it.<BR/><BR/>That's my 2-cents.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02236449128797878326noreply@blogger.com
