| >> An artificial confection of something that was never there in nature is not what >> attracts me to photography. Any digital camera will give you exactly that unless you use RAW format. If your digital camera takes JPGs it processes them using software. But then you have to process the RAW file somehow .... you cant win. For that matter no photograph developed without tweaks will give you something that is there in nature. As you know each brand of film captures light differently. Playing with depth of field gives you something you'll never see with your eyes. If you read what Morfe actually wrote you'll see he does so much work to try and get the image as close to what he could remember from being there. That wouldn't be the same as what you or I would have seen if we'd have been standing next to him when he took it. Photographs are lies - no matter who takes them. The difference is whose lies they are. Are they the lies of the camera software? The lies of the chemicals in the film? The carefully crafted lies created intentionally by someone in the [digital] darkroom?  This topic is locked |  4th March 2006ce 15:29 In reply to: Re: Medium Format..
