Eisboch,
Thanks for the comment, and I too disagree with Harry about a photograph
should be limited to "You are there" or "Postcard" record of a scenic
view. If I limited myself to this kind of photography, I would get
bored very quickly. The best photos I have seen have been manipulated
in some fashion, either by perspective, a very unique angle, shutter
speed (to enrich the colors or blur all or part of the photo, using the
aperture to change the depth of field, deliberately blurring part or all
of the scene (by moving the camera or zooming the lens while using a
slow shutter speed, HDR or other post processing techniques.


You "misunderstood" my comment. I often change perspective, angle,
shutter speed or aperture myself, but when I do, I am still looking for
a photo found in nature.
