Yesterday viriginiacoastline (A.KA. Pete) wondered aloud why I had not doctored up my image by putting something that really isn't there into the image. And then Dan Chusid (A.K.A. Dan Chusid) questioned my claim that I was using my 15mm fisheye lens.
Here is the deal folks (drum roll please)… all this month I am posting undoctored images. That means there are no parts of the frame that were not in it in the first place.* This is my modest effort to try some new learning for me… shooting straight. ;-) Everything is genuine.
I'll continue to do things like Levels, Curves, USM, and maybe a dodge or burn, but no pasting into the image of subjects that were not there in the first place!
BTW, the little figurine is a gift from Michele that she bought in Oaxaca.
* Before I was full committed to this January plan I did manipulate one image earlier in the month.
