Snobbery (257/365)
My sister once asked me how I feel about using Photoshop and image manipulation. To her, photos have to roll out of her camera, ready like a polaroid. Every change is one to many.
I however, have strayed far from this notion and now, to quote the great John Cleese, fart in that general direction. Digital pictures, in my opinion, need a little interpretation, mostly because they generally lack the sensitive and organic nature of film. Besides it's not like the romantic days of yore days were totally void of a little burn or dodge (for those who know the lingo) and in the end, it's the transferring of a feeling that ranks supreme.
So, in the light of a free interpretation of Aristotle's quote 'to use photoshop to the amount at the right time, and for the right purpose and in the right way - that is not within everyone's power and that is not easy', today I totally went overboard and combined HDR - the ultimate photoshop snobbery - with an unhealthy dose of duotone. My oh my...
By the way, how do you like my new lamp :)
