I like to shoot to edit. I don’t like to spend time fixing photos that have been shot badly. I like to get it right the first time. I love the numerous tools available in Photoshop but l prefer to use them as a last resort.

Film photographers have done the same things for years, by virtue of the darkroom. For the pure artists in photography, the digital age is nothing more than an extension of what we have already been given. – I love the photos above, especially the mystic mood conveyed by the bottom photo. Good job.

@Joelle What is the difference between using a brush in photoshop and using a brush on a canvas as a painter. Every realist artist is stealing the realness from the world. Does that make you sick? Simmer down now.

I completely disagree… This looks fake and like nothing I would hang on my wall or have the artist that did them hang on my way. If you think digital quality is better then you like lieing and manipulating things to get the results you want? what you arent a good enough painter? not really a good artist? so you have to steal the realness from the world and then add things by photoshop? that makes me sick.
