It’s not solidified to realize decisions when you recall what your values are.

Leaving photojournalism aside (no one supports manipulating news images, well except the newspapers and major news networks apparently)

I find that those who squawk the loudest about the use of lightroom & photoshop to enhance photographs are the ones with least amount of skill in either medium.

In my opinion It is not so much of a ethical dillema as it is a case of simple jealousy and an unwillingness to embrace new tools or to take the time to learn to use them at a masters level.

To those who really believe in “Purism” I suggest scratching with a burnt stick (which must have been burned by a lighting strike of course) on a cave wall somewhere. You can then proclaim yourself the only “Pure” photographer on the planet, I am sure all the other cave people will appreciate your work.

Hi Matt, I really love your blog site and I know grammar correction is frowned upon in this new age of electronic communication so I hope you’ll read it, consider it and delete it. I’m a seasoned teacher so I thought I’d mention this to you. Your use of “then” is sometimes incorrectly used for “than”.

Such as: “…better then the guy next door…” instead of …better than the guy next door…

Please accept this as a friendly, constructive comment. I just want you to be the best communicator at what you already excel at.

Continued success, Dave

Hey Matt,
wanted to thank you for all the work you’re doing. I find it very impressive how much time you spend for helping others for free and still are able to make a living out of all this. That’s quite cool.

Your before/after tutorials are plain awesome and a great help. I seriously don’t know what all this non-/purist-comment-writers are talking about: a tutorial is about giving help on how to do things, not why to do them. That’s a personal matter of taste and everyone should be able to make a decision on his own. If people think tutorials are about copying every step, they maybe should stick with painting-by-numbers.

Anyway, keep up the great work!

You go, guy! Love the “Big deal” regarding the generic analogy. That made me laugh out loud.

Hey, I use Photoshop like there’s no tomorrow and phooey on anyone who thinks that only judicious uses of it are “ok”. I use it to high heaven. I use filters and overlays and the clone tool, gaussian blur and the Kubota tools. I love it all.

Cool for those who only use a snippet of smart sharpen and they’re done. Bravo. For me – my photos are more a painterly approach to what I saw and equally as artful, in my eyes. It’s my emotional response to the image that I’m trying to convey and I do that however I see fit.

Love the blog!
