:lol: Don't become a dinoasaur mate. We did have this discussion in depth some time ago anyway, but it really is a nonsense looking backward, digital photography is here to stay, and we see few images in magazines and the media these days which aren't heavily manipulated in some way anyway. What do we think we achieve by denying ourselves the same tools? The recognition of being a 'proper'photographer? Do leave it out. :wink: Photography has changed out of all recognition and the initial nay sayers have abandoned film in their droves recognizing the enormous advantages of going digital.
I think what some people resent is the loss of the mystical alchemy practised in the dark by the glow of a safe light, and the ease with which it is now possible for the newomer to produce quality images with a minimum of technical knowledge. Photography is still about creativity and it's the final image which matters - not the process. We should all be thankful for the new media and the powerful editing tools at our disposal. :wink:
