    Biography: Note - English is a second language for me. So I want to apologize beforehand for every grammar mistake I will make anywhere in the site.

    I have started photographing with a film SLR, and some principles stuck.

    I believe a good photographer plans the photo ahead, and does his best to achieve his goals at that time, and not AFTER the photo was taken.

    IMHO, the colors, the composition, the light, should be real, and not come from Photoshop editing. I guess some adjustments are OK even with me, but I usually prefer not to crop, clone or alter the photograph after it was processed by the camera...

    In my opinion, advanced editing relates to graphic design rather then artistic photography.
