i just wanna leave the note that i am in finland now. people are crazy here, especially when it comes to alcohol esp. vodka. so great place for the koria.
anyway, enjoy my finland photos cause i will stay here for quite a time. i will move to helsinki in may next year so then i will trash you with cityshots (hopefully).
anything new? how are you everybody? leave me comments and let me know that youre still there.

It was a nice thing here to meet you and watching your photos. I am sur ethat a lot of you are highly talented and will make it into the photo business.
Unfortunately I am not satisfied at all with my page here. My aim for dA was to enlarge my community by giving and receiving comments. I thought of a discussion.
I am very disatisfied that it does not work.

Anyway, I want to thank you for all your heartly comments and feedbacks. People who do not want to forget my works and who want to see whats going on with me are welcome on my flickr-page:

Good Luck!

Marc

"hey gilad. thanks for your short discussion about that very important topic. i also thought a lot of these things some time ago. so let me answer with my opinion on your statements (shortened and in italics):

2. It [photo manipulation] is so damn easier than it use to be.[...]

i feel that you use the word "manipulation" in a negative way. a manipulation, in my opinion, is just a change you did in a photography. then you can distinguish between the grade of change.
photomanipulation is an artistic field. so the more you learn and the better you improve. but also: the more you know and do the harder it is to recognize the manipulation. so i think it is not right to say that manipulation is generally easy. should it be harder?
i appreciate your detailed explanations concerning photoshop manipulation in documentary photography. but i also appreciate you not to forget about the importance for the artistic way of photography.

3. Photography is slowly loosing it’s respected place as an authentic art form.[...]

sure? photography begins with a "click" and ends with .... where does it end? apart from the little adjustments, it ends with looking at the photo for the documentary use, to tell the truth, to show something real.
but what about art? in my opinion, the field of photography art begins with a "click" and it never ends. the photo is the raw material for the artistic interpretation and manipulation in every way it needs to create a message, an emotion or a discussion. in my opinion the photography art does not need in general the content of truth as a sacrosanct, fixed condition.

thanks for reading!"



i would like to read your opinion to that topic here!

in the dusk i explored a carousel turning as hell into the night, so romantic!
this was one of my nicest (photo-)trips i ever had!
