I was trying to say that TF has photographers and photoshoppers AND painters, etc whereas we have photographers and photoshoppers without the painters here.


Aw wtf, let me just put it this way: TF A&P HAS PAINTERS!@$
the ONLY has already been done.

We all know that the british ONLY like tea, and are still upset we didn't put any sugar in the water.

I hate to say this, but without a few of you good photographers, its more like Photoshoppers....

I have tried to help some folks, but i have gotten crappy pms becuse of it. I choose not to respond and delete. I see the TF side as being more willing to accept critique and better their technique then some of the TR's. One thing that stands out, is that TR people are so ingrained in to thinking what a "car photo" should look like that they stay in this little box. Never to break out, using their photomatix and their awesome angles. Rather than learn the fundamentals on why certain people took a photo that way. Its great photography has gotten so big in the recent decade, since the evo of digital cams, but it doesnt mean we should throw away critical compositon fundamentals or exposure control.

my 2 cents, please take it as it is, not here to bash anyone, just made an observation.

I like out of the box type of work. Maybe I do cut some limbs off but I like the look of it sometimes.

One thing I always thought is if you like the way it looks then why not shoot it. I mean this is an art form. Not all artist follow the rules..

You are very good with words, and know how to voice your opinion. I can't see how someone could get offended by a little CC from you.

I think that's more a reflection of age and maturity levels. I don't know the average age of TR or TF users, but I'd wager TF's average is higher than TR's.

I agree with you here, and I'm decidedly guilty of it. This is where you, as a more experienced photographer than most of the usuals around here, have an opportunity to help out and help others advance.

Post processing is an important aspect of digital photography, but you are right, a photographer's talent should still lie between the ears.
