Everyone knows I loathe the idea of manipulating and enhancing photos by photoshop. I think it's cheating, but at the same time it is necessary. For example, you shoot something really cool like an exploding dolphin, but some guys hand is in the frame. You gotta crop that piece out. I learned some interesting photoshop techniques, but I do wish to take a formal class one day. Some of the stuff the do is amazing. Check out some of the youtube vids of people using photoshop to make fat people skinny, ugly people into beauties, dogs into cats, cats into humans, earth into a fat person, etc etc. Photoshop is necessary for this generation. Although I like do manual settings for my contrast and saturation on my camera, there is so much more to unlock when combining a photographer's eye and a personalized post production studio. Enough of my rambling...here are some old photos done in LOMO style.(high saturation + vignetting) It's pretty interesting.
