For my
photographer friends: I would be interested in your thoughts on this video Are These Photographs Cheating?, by
Jamie Windson. It is a little over ten minutes long. I would like to point out
that two of the photographs discussed, one by Robert Frank from his iconic book
The Americans and one by Ancel Adams,
Moonrise Over Hernandez, are from the
film days. Frank’s is a composite; Adams’ is highly manipulated. So for the
SOOC crowd, even the best of the best were manipulating images long before digital.
I am posting
a notice to Facebook hoping to get some feedback. In the meantime, I will work
up a piece with my thoughts and post it in a day or two.
