Nowadays shots are created in post-production, on computers. It's not really photography.

Nowadays shots are created in post-production, on computers.

Summary

This quote highlights the shift in photography practices due to digital advancements. With the rise of post-production editing and computer-generated imagery, the traditional process of capturing photos has evolved significantly. The quote suggests that these modern techniques have moved away from the authentic essence of photography as it is no longer solely reliant on capturing images in-camera but rather involves extensive manipulation after the shot is taken. The implication is that this departure from traditional photography may blur the line between photography and digital art.

My books are mine, and yet they are alien to me--as a child belongs to a parent and yet has a life of its own. I can guide and hope and nudge my characters this and that way, but in the end, they become what they become. I don't always like what they become myself, but like a parent, there are times when I just don't know what to do about it. Other times when I'm so proud of them I could bust.
