don_satalic2 Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 The problem with these photographs is they have no digital manipulation. None are supersaturated or unsharpened or curves yoyoed. Where's the Gaussian blur or textures? What good are they anyway? A fauxtograph isn't any good these days unless you've PS'd on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jack_welsh Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 "The problem with these photographs is they have no digital manipulation" So, what! Does a photo have to be shot digitally, processed digitally to be good? Is that what this world has become? It has to be the digital way or no way?

ralf_j. Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Jack - I think Don was was being saracastic :-).<p> John - thanks for the comments. Love that photo. Took it last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack_welsh Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Ralf, you're probably right about Don. Sorry, Don. It's just that I've seen,(and I'm not against Digital), that there are some people who seem to feel that digital is everything and film users just don't get it. As if film users have to defend their use of film. I mentioned in an earlier post about seeing a website where Sandy King just had a 20x24 ULF camera made. And, one person posted,"Is that what film users have to do to justify using film?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

golden Posted July 22, 2008 Author Share Posted July 22, 2008 Im just in awe of these photographs, each one has a story and each one is a one of a kind that can never be captured again, I found a picture of my grandmother who passed on a few years ago at the age of 96, in the photo i saw of her she was 13 years old. she was always old to me ever since i could remember, but i know she wasnt always old, and that photograph proves it, its the only one of her as a child, a true one of a kind. makes me wonder what camera it may have been shot with and who the photographer was.
