Those glowing people make me think of the old 70's Ready Brek advertisements? For the brits amongst us (dont think it made it to the states?).

Except for the funky glow around the couple this picture would have been very good.

I like all forms of photography. Purist to blended digital art.

With that said I don't think the "purist" form can be done very well with a digital camera as it can be done with film.

Digital in my opinion is a two step process. I have seen good shots made into spectacular ones with some judicious PP.

I think its very nice shot. I may be completely wrong but I think the matching frame is taking the color level of the photo a little to far.

the funky glow i am not liking much now.. and the frame is too gaudy.. you are both right on those accounts for sure..

btw- i justshot some new "stock" to edit today... i have some good and darker/moodier things in mind... not sure when i will get to it thougt..

and.. i shot some more "purist" things as well, for those fans!!

I was told or read somewhere that the best photos by the best photographers are always doctored even if the don't go around singing about it. I had the occasion to see some originals and the doctored version and agree that an attempt at both worlds is not a sin. I think it is what makes art, hmm?
