Photographers are largely a purist lot by nature, with their own foibles. I find that using digital MAKES me more critical of the original capture than ever before. But i can't see why there is so much disparity, photography is surely the art of manipulating light into the desired result? Nothing more, nothing less.

Aye, Iv'e met a few like that,
I reckon that digital offers more opportunity than film to manipulate the effects of the original light, e.g. photoshop, video projections, web-based stuff and whathaveyou. Then you can always re-work it till your hearts content. Cheaper, bigger printers would help though.

I just read back over that last post, and it looks like I was suggsting maybe T'chops was a purist, I wasn't ! I use the royal 'they' when I mean 'us' or 'one', it gets me into lots of trouble.

Maybe no-one else thought this, maybe I'm being attacked by plastic mutant spoons, maybe they're watching me>? Who's that?
Quick, the cupboard, no it's full of Frosties and rubberbands put there by Satanites to stretch my credulity, AGHY, ARGH, argh
