Thanks for the responses.
I suspect most of them have. Most are quite old historical photos.
Opinions wanted.
There is a Facebook group where one member shares his beautiful work colorizing old photos. Most of these photos were taken by others. Is it ethical for him to uses the photos of others, without attribution, and subtly pass the entire work off as his own?
Try Google photos. You can create an album and email the link
I feel a lot of todays photographers saying they only shoot in manual are engaging in one-upmanship, they are the real and/or pure photographer in doing so.
Perhaps you feel that way but you have no evidence that others do. I haven't seen anybody disparage those who do not shoot manual so why disparage those who do?
I guess to answer your specific question "why one would ever want to shoot entirely in manual mode?" My answer would be that I derive a lot of satisfaction in knowing and using the settings that deliver the results that I visualized before the shot.
To me, the use of the word "guessing" here means "applying years of experience".
I do calendars and print the photo on the glossy side and the months and days on the non glossy side. I've had a hard time finding coated one side without manufacturer logo at regular print paper suppliers but my local art store seems to have it in abundance.
I've had good luck at art stores.
Sometime my send button disappears after I type some text on my mobile app. Any idea as to why?
Has it contributed to photographic output? Certainly. Photographic quality? That's subjective but I think not. I'm on quite a few sunrise/sunset groups and lens flare and crocked horizons are rampant. Gimmick? I don't think so.
It looked like a private community. The officer indicated there were signs in the area indicating so. It seems to me that the officer politely afforded the guy the opportunity to leave without being arrested. Private property is private property.
I'm saying that both parties should use good judgement and respect. Good judgement includes understanding that a parent will go to great lengths to protect their young if they feel their young is threatened.
