i don't think any of us here, purist or otherwise, has ever been featured on a foreign mag, a photo mag at that, like they have.
i agree with the TS...make the the shot perfect even without post-processing. then do what you like with your shot. even if other people don't like what you do, just make sure that you, and your intended viewers, like what you do...

Or at the other end of the spectrum someone should seed a thread: Post your 10 Deadly Post Processing Sins. The photo post shall be primarily labeled the deadly processing sin number before or after the picture name. And if it is not secret/confidential he can share/state the processing/editing/adjustment/whatever work flow.

I nominate Sir CMontoya to manage the thread on account of his Before and After photo post which generally falls on No. 1 Deadly Post Processing.

no need to do that you can post your pictures here..

This article, although about painting, is applicable to photography.

Art - Realism vs Impressionism

Tung una naa pud impressionists versus realists.

A quote from said article, "You have something to say and you do so through your painting. Then, you direct the attention of the viewer at exactly what it is you have to "show". And if you have nothing to say ... well then ... the viewer might as well look anywhere on the canvas."

yup, kanya2x lagi ug style pero naa uban di kahibaw unsa ang "less is more".. something nice will be ruined.. like a beautiful model... gwapa na daan.. butangan ug make-up, or sometimes powder ra.. good to go.. pero imo i.subra pura na ug clown..
