Photography and digital editing

What is better ? To edit or make photos and do not edit?


I must say at first is important to know your equipment. No matter what kind of DSLR camera you are using it for (Nikon, Sony, Canon etc.), huge advantage is, if you can get the maximum out of your camera. All possibility settings and options make ordinary photos to high quality photos. Basically if you are master of your tools you don't need to use any editing. Let's be honest which of us didn't make a mistake.

What I wrote above applies to the 20th century. At the moment we are completely different and we live in the 21st century and this is the other side of the coin. Editing photos (Photoshop, Lightroom, Adobe etc.) gives us huge options. Someone needs to edit only small errors and small adjustments, but someone needs to change almost everything in the original photo. Hand-painted photography is probably buried a long time ago in the past. Who doesn't know what I'm saying can look at quality work of Jan Saudek. Art photography is what has changed a lot. It's simply because digital photo editing provides an enormous amount of editing options.

What to say at the end? Photography cannot survive without digital editing and digital editing cannot live without high quality photography. It's already one coin that has two sides. It is difficult to say which side is more important but from my point of view it is 50 to 50.


This castle is a very simple example of how you can in the photoshop completely change the entire content of a photo. My time to do it is just 25 minutes.
