Master Bates Photography

photography I believe photographers are artist meant to cross the boundaries of reality and fantasy . How one perceives the photo will always be subjective.

the output of the images depend on what the photographer wants it to be. they are not meant to conform to how the subject... is perceived by most people. as an artist, they have freedom to express how they perceive and see the subject. Photo manipulation is a way for the photographer to share how he perceives the subject. one can use realism or abstraction to present it as art. in the end. It depends on the point of view you are using . art can go from real to unreal.
