"No dad, I won't stay up too late."

Flickr has made me question photography.
What is the point of even snapping a picture if you're just going to photoshop the shit out of it?
Photoshop completely changes the meaning of photography.
When taking a picture, are you not trying to capture that moment in a single frame? So why try to change the shot completely?
It makes it seem fake and more like a painting than photography.

And now its 5:03 AM.

Blame the legions of teenagers who get a fancy new camerea, say "i'm going to take THAT picture and saavvee the world" then realise that THAT picture is just a shopping trolley without wheels. And photosop therafter.

Your blogging at dangerous speeds. someone might get hurt :D

Hahah.
I'm so sick of people thinking that taking a picture of an empty room with a chair in it is art.


And I hope you're not complaining. :]
