Change is inevitable; accepting it isn't.


I picked up SLR photography after the digital revolution--the Rebel XTi was my first. To be honest, I don't usually do much post processing on my images as I tend to get [very clost to] what I want in camera. Everyone I show my portfolio to underestimates how much work goes into capturing those images--and I'm ok with that. It still takes time to create a masterpiece...the fact that we have better technology now than we did a decade (or two) ago shouldn't be held against us. There are still masters creating captivating works today just as they were back then.





People often reference masters like Ansel Adams when they contrast the ways of yester year with the post-processing of today. But few people know that Ansel Adams was a master in the darkroom--he dodged and burned his images quite heavily before the public ever saw them. Therefore, he was a pioneer and master of the latest and greatest post processing techniques of his era.


Interesting, don't you think?
