As for photography, I began taking pictures back in the fifties just because I love freezing time, sharing the images with others . Years ago, long before photoshop and long before any kind of regular editing was used, a photograph used to be proof of what happened. Now, with technology , and computers and all sorts of editing software, sometimes photographs are questionable, and sometimes even if a photograph is untouched, if the topic or image seems impossible, the first question one might ask is , "is that photoshopped"?

For the most part , I like 'the' original, real image, though in the past few months or so I have been learning some basics in photoshop, and if I get the hang of it, who knows, maybe I will be using the program a lot more in the future.
