As you may have noticed, i am anti-photoshop (or should i say, i dislike it). Or should i say excessive use of digital media to change a photograph is cheating. it makes me want to puke when used in combination with sunsets/landscapes or teenage girls' profile pictures. it seems as though the majority of pictures these days are "enhanced" (colour, saturation, contrast, and exposure are the most common). in advertising, there is no surprise they are (airbrushing) but in galleries too?!? come on! the extreme alterations of digital photos trying to pass off as authentic is BULLSHIT! ...in my opinion...
what i'm trying to say is photoshop isn't photography. it is an art all of its own. it falls under the category of design.
