I really like your vision. I looked at some of your other pictures and they are really good. Did you go to art school or study for the way you see things?

I don't mean to be um, cynical or overly critical or anything, but:

 

If photography is done with light, and this and your other 'photos' were done entirely in Photoshop, how is it a photograph?

 

People are saying "nice shot" and "this photo is your best", but... isn't this more like a painting than a photograph, in that it's purely imaginary, a vision within someone's mind and visualized through the use of pigment, digital pigment in this case? Nothing here is 'photographic'? Am I missing something?

 

Sorry, I know these 'photos' are dominating the high ranks, but I don't get it... I can draw and model things in my computer too, but I wouldn't call it a photograph.

Nice image but, um....is it a photograph?

 

I'm afraid that I agree with Jason on this. Unless the capture of reflected light was somehow involved in the creation of the image then it's not really a photograph. I'd say the same thing to someone who posted a scan of a drawing or a painting.

 

I've checked your portfolio and you have done some really amazing computer graphics, but that's what they are, not photographs. And this is a photography forum.

I agree with Jason, it is a superbly done ILLUSTRASION, not a photograph, even if the initial image was an actual photographic shoot
