"Photoshop is makeup - it's digital makeup." - 365 Project, Day 226

This is yet another reason to justify post-processing, though presents it from a different angle.  Simplest question that comes to mind is, what's the difference between making the subject look pretty before or after the picture is taken?  It's a simple question, but for purists it's a simple answer, though purists will generally not do anything to subject to begin with.  Although, to be exceptionally picky, taking two steps to one side or the other to get a subject, whatever it may be, at the right angle, is one form of editing.  What, then, is the difference between that and cropping?

There is also a difference in the type of photography, as well.  Today's quote is from a glamour/fashion photographer and she openly talks about retouching her photos.  There's a slight difference between fashion photography and photojournalism, and the tenets of one would definitely not carry over very well to the other.

All in all, I like this quote.  It's simple and pretty powerful.

His note: This bird dove at me then landed on this roof.  Seems like he was proud of his accomplishment.

Her note: I don't like the look of this.

Once again, a colourful leaves shot.  It's fall and it'll probably happen again before all the leaves are on the ground.  It was a slow day and there wasn't much to look at.  It does have pretty colours, though.

I'm not sure about tomorrow, though I have a feeling I'll be tired.
