[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 246447, member: 9240"] [b]Re: help[/b] Do you [B][I]REALLY[/I][/B] want to start this again?! Post processing is an "escape"?! I suspect far more successful and revered photographers than I would have a field day with that, particularly coming from someone whose photos we've barely seen. I find it rather funny, and oddly hypocritical, how your quote talks about adapting and yet you seem to be the most unadaptable of human beings. Unless you are looking at Kodachrome sides projected on a wall, every great photographer in history has post-processed - it's called printing!! And some printing is FAR more involved than other printing. And this extends to the digital darkroom. And heck, even slides are post processed - it's called developing, and yes, you can screw that up. So let's just drop the charade. I get it, you think it's a crutch. Yes, it [B][I]can be[/I][/B] a crutch. But to label it as such [B][I]every time it's mentioned[/I][/B] - particularly by me - is getting old and more than a bit ridiculous, particularly when we're addressing a question from a new photographer with a perfectly exposed image asking if there's a problem with her camera!!
