| I personally think JPEG settings is PP, but not PP to the extent that you can say that it "went through photoshop" if someone asked.
In my humble opinion, PP is just part of life for digital photography. No need to be ashamed that you're doing it. PP is not just to correct mistakes, in fact I don't think that should be its main purpose. The purpose is to show the photo the way you want it. I never show anyone unPPed images these days, as I think there just isn't enough care put to it yet if you haven't PPed it in some form. In film I can select film to get the look I want, then why can't I do PP in digital to do the same? And if you argue that you can select JPEG setting to get the look you want, I will ask is do you put yellow filters to put contrast in your B&W images instead of PP? |
