Me Against The World



Long time before digital photography was introduced people used film cameras, some still do, we all need that once you hit the shutter button with these kind of cameras, thats it, what you had in your view finder will be printed, for ever, you have no influence over it, so you had to be real good to take a great shot, you had to be at the right pace at the right time, every single time, and that takes a lot of time and effort.

Now we are in the new age, we use digital photography and photoshop, they are great, they help a lot, you can take a photo mid afternoon and make it look like you woke up very early in the morning and took it during sun rise, that saves time, you can remove unwanted subjects from the photo instead of going into very danger's spots to take the same shot.

Old school guys refuse new age technology, they say It's not "real" photography, WHAT!, the problem here is the human nature, change is very difficult for us, human, and any new idea will get rejection instantly, there were the excuses come from, they don't realize that you need to learn the whole concept of photography, the same way they did, plus photoshop or any other photo editing software (for real old schoolers they need to learn first how turn the computer on) or they actually do realize that but don't wont to, so they make these things up.

I guess this matter will always exist until all these people distinguish, ya I know it's bad but that's only a thought.
