Photography Question

Contest FAQ's


Looks like BP has added this recently (?), possibly in response to some of our discussions. I'm glad to see it, and I think it'll be really helpful, especially for new members.

Q: I see digitally manipulated photos in the contest - is this okay?

A: Yes, understanding that many image are optimized in a program like Adobe Photoshop, we allow digital manipulated photos in other categories. Images have been enhanced and/or completely changed in the darkroom, long before Photoshop was developed. The only difference is that, with Photoshop, image enhancement is much more accessible. We recommend learning Photoshop or a simi liar digital image-editing program to be able to make your images look their best. As mentioned, manipulated images can be entered into any category. The "Digital Darkroom" category is for photos where the main "value" or meaning of the photo is the digital manipulation itself.

I guess this clears up some confusion!

This was copied direct from the FAQs. I love the "simi liar" typo!
