TheMadPeacock On The Sofa

Photography for me is not about capturing what’s before you but capturing your vision. Over on f/1.4 there is a great post that takes this a bit further than I normally do but the way Seán has realized his vision of middle earth is inspiring and I urge you to take a look.

I often hear people talk about how they don’t like to use Photoshop to enhance their images. These same people don’t however have a problem dodging and burning in or out details they want to emphasize in their shots.
I learnt much of my photo manipulation techniques from reading books by the great printers like Ansel Adams..
