Photo Editing

Photography, like digital graphics, rely more on technology than any other major creative medium. Not only do you need a thorough knowledge of your equipment in order to make the most of it, but the process themselves can influence the work you do. The word "photography" comes from the French photographie which is based on the Greek words phos ("light"), and graphis ("stylus", "paintbrush"), together meaning "painting with light."

Photo Editing / Retouching is the application of image editing techniques to modifying photographs by digital means. Uses, cultural impact and ethical concerns have made it a subject of interest beyond the technical process and skills involved. But when used properly, it can help any form of presentation.

My Love for Photography

Photography is an experimental art I've been testing for about 3 to 7 years. I bought my first camera back in 1990 ... a point and shoot Canon A800. I became a camera whore when a Muslim friend gave me my first SLR. It was an Olympus OM-10 with a manual adapter and 50mm lens. I've since bought a point and shoot digital camera ... a Canon Powershot A400. I lost all my manual camera to a flood during the Typhoon Frank in Iloilo. I'm still saving up for a DSLR camera as of this date. It's in my wishlist, but it's not a priority for me.

I took formal photography classes at the West Visayas State University Extension School just to learn the basics. I find it relaxing to shoot just about anything but now, I mainly shoot for webpage and print design. I leave the photography part of the job to my photographer friends who both have the time and equipment for it.
