[QUOTE="NikonThom, post: 37681, member: 8234"] Personally, I really like your photo! I consider photography to have two main branches, 1) Photorealism and 2) Art. The two mix with many degrees of success. Photojournalism seeks to portray life as it actually is, Art photography interprets a scene to suit the photographer's visualization. There should really be no conflict between the two, since each photographer may select his or her own desired effect. There is a vast audience for both, but I want to do my photography to suit my own vision. I want to create beauty. That is my goal. If a scene is not as beautiful as I think it should be, I will augment it with my creative ability. I think your photo is a work of art, and I would hang it on my wall. Others might want a more realistic rendition and accept less saturation, latitude, and "wow" factor in their own version of it. Please keep up the great work! Satisfy yourself and you will undoubtedly satisfy many others as well! Thom Tapp (NikonThom) [/QUOTE]
