Digital Imaging -Vs- Photography........This argument has been around awhile now and I am amazed it still pops up on occassion.Some have settled it by having two seperate contests and some 2 distinct categories.I saw the phrase: altered images competing against non-altered and thought to myself are we not altering images as seen by our eye even through use of a camera? we are controlling our lighting, we are controlling our backgrounds, we are contrrolling our shutter speed for use in effects............I'd say thats Altering, Just in a different way.In a WORD, What does it all come down to?...........CREATIVITYThe Best creative Image/Photograph Wins.In my mind you can make rules and have rules within rules and absolutely destroy the FUN that the contest is supposed to be about.Yes, Computer graphic artists are going to be better with imaging programs than most of us giving them some advantages, just as Professional Photographers ( or those who made Minitaure Photography a Serious 2nd hobby) had a distinct advantage over the guy with a poloroid and a toilet paper tube pinhole lens cover.Do we make new rules because now the guy with all the photography equipment and training no longer has an advantage?ORDo we make new rules because the guy with the best computer & imaging software won a contest or two? ( is that advantage any different than those who had the best Nikon and lighting equipment 10 years ago?)I say think less about the equipment and more about the creative nature of the Photo/Image you will submit. You may win and you may lose........OH WELL!!
