Editing is a Moving Target
The topic of editing is always an interesting conversation both between photographers and with those who are not. I wanted to talk about my approach to editing because I think I understand it (not that I was trying to figure it out necessarily).
I believe my style is to keep my photos closer to natural by marginally reinforcing what is already there:
If there are clouds in the sky, I want to show the viewer how they etch within one another showing bits of sky in between and around.
When there is color, I want to enhance it where it makes sense - just because the grass is green doesn't mean I want it to play a primary role
Reinforcing texture in stone, sticks, bricks, and clothing
Mood has begun to play a common theme in my photos this year, certain color tones and emphasizing shadows - not for ever scene
I'm certain my style will evolve over time, and it's the reason I don't want to go looking for it vs just let it be what it is.
