Which explains why 99.9 percent of all photos taken - keep in mind that, to steal a phrase from the late Carl Sagan, there are "billions and billions" of photos taken every year, if not every month, by everyone from three-year-olds with disposables in their hands, to the folks on this list who take photography very seriously indeed. The "trend in photography" has always been "see anything" and "take a picture," and unless one is a real master with PS or other image manipulation programs, the average worthless photo remains that, no mater how much manipulation it gets. By the way, when the Polaroid came out did you suggest calling photography using Polaroid cameras and film "polography?" :-) > > The trend in photography seems to be 1) see anything, 2) take a picture, > 3) use a computer to make it interesting. > > Maybe what some people are still calling photography ought to be called > digography. > > >>> Take a look at this program, for a peek at cutting edge image > manipulation technology.
