Ah, the digital argument...

2002-12-06 by Matthew Born

I don't think Stan meant NOT manipulating images necessarily means limiting
your vision, just that if you *wish* to do so and elect not to because of a
self-imposed rule against using such tools, you are limiting your vision. I
may be inferring a bit here on his behalf (as informed by my own feelings on
the matter), but that's my guess.

Cheers,
Matthew Born, who successfully turned a roll of 120 film into a very long
string of suddenly exposed land fill yesterday.
