Well, I take pictures so I have stock (I have 10 years of stock from Corsica...), a little best-of of the Pyrenees from this past year (I took these photos on the occasion of an exhibition on the mountain for the local climbing club):

There is trafficking and trafficking. Every photo is by nature, the doctored reality! It's a story we tell.

1) the composition, that is to say the choice of "framing" (to put it simply!), can give you an image that no longer bears much relation to reality. A great classic is the photo of a beautiful place, wild and far from everything....when you omit the city or the "gargote", or the crowd gathered on the side! If you go and see photos of the Giza pyramids on the internet, it's very famous! In fact, the pyramids are 1km from Cairo (I saw them in person... well, that's quite strange : Shock: ). And again, there are different levels: choosing not to put the electric pole in the composition is quite common...

2) development: yes, even in digital, we develop! Development is choosing from the raw information of the photo - formerly the negative - how we are going to produce the final shot. And there, you can modify almost everything (and we already did it in analog with the negatives!), exposure, color balance, contrast, etc. Again, it can go to "I accentuate the oranges and magenta a little so that the sunset is closer to what my eye saw", or even "I force the contrast a little because my photo is a little flat", to "I stuff the colors like a donkey and I have the neon blue sea, the bright orange rock and the all purple clouds".

3) retouching: there, we modify the information directly via photoshop-type software, and we create information from scratch by removing an inconvenient car, an unsightly pole...

Personally, of course, I use 1, when it's a detail. Otherwise, I keep "the story", and sometimes the contrast is interesting, even. On the 2nd, obviously I'm developing but I stick to natural colors.
On the 3rd, even if I know how to do it very well because I am trained, I never do it: I have neither the desire nor the time to modify the story that I myself experienced in the picture :)

izyzy always wants to have the biggest one! : Mrgreen: : Mrgreen: : Mrgreen:

We saw that there was "manipulation" in this photo...so what?

There are much worse retouchings!

Once again, the moron speaks without even having read the description:
The moon over Yosemite Falls ✨ This is a two shot composite with photo manipulation. This is an updated/improved version of my surprisingly popular image.
