Real feelings about fake images
For over 20 years I have enjoyed traditional photography, both color and
b/w. I have also printed in both a color and a b/w darkroom for the past 15 years. The only print manipulation I perform is selective dodging, burning, and cropping. It seems that lately some viewers are questioning the "reality" of my work. I am often asked; "Oh, did you create that image in Photoshop?". My images are true to life....just as I saw them with my own eyes at the time of exposure. I get upset when viewers suspect that my work is "made up" or is "not real". I am beginning to lose the excitement and joy that my photography has given me over the years. I just do not feel inspired to seek out great scenes to photograph when it is now possible to just create an artifical scene on a computer. Does anyone else feel this way...or am I just too sensitive for my own good? Terry |
