I have a problem with removing that. Change the framing, move the shooting location, move closer or use a different lens.

Hieronymus Bosch and Sargent were painters, not photographers. Please keep that straight.

It is not a question of whether or not something can be passed off as straight photography, it is a question of honesty, which you should know something about. Oh and size does not matter with honesty.

Aw yes, you are a wise one.

I do not limit myself to black & white film.

Still only one.

You are a wise man for using Hasselblad. GAS is Good! Welcome to APUG Photrio!!

Welcome to APUG Photrio!!

I could have sold you a Hasselblad for less and you still would have been able to use Zeiss lenses. :angel:

Where is the temperature controlled bath, chemical input spout, and the tank or drum lifting arm for raise and emptying the tank or drum? Its called "Fakin' it, but not makin' it".

I had a case which I won because when I showed a 11"x14" print, the opposing attorney made the mistake of challenging it and called it a FauxTow$hop digital photograph. I produced the negative which the judge studied for a minute and then declared me the winner in the case.

Moonrise of Ansel - nothing added to the negative, heavy dodging and burning. Infrared photographs - straight photograph, that is what the negative recorded. "Neither to me would be straight, but they were just records of what was in front of the lens." The problem is merely yours, put your...

Correct it is not a straight photograph and should be labelled for what it is, a manipulation of the original negative.

Thank you. I wondered about that before I posted.

Maybe collectable for you but not for me and others. New and different is not always wonderful and great.

That is part of what is recorded on the negative and part of straight photography. Your misunderstanding is that you are not using the definition most of the rest of us are using which is also the definition that most of the worlds is using. There is no discussion of lens aberations or...

There are some well designed and well made Hasseblad lens hoods from China, but they do not claim to be made by Hasselblad.

Just wack it with a hammer a few times and it will be better. 🙄

It is a photography. The image is on the negative. There was not FauxTow$hopping here, just the mechanics of the shutter in the camera.

See post #28. Just because something was done in the past, does not justify doing it today.

No, you are confused about what is straight photography. What the lens records regardless of position, lens, focus exposure is straight photography. Adding or deleting major object is not straight photography. Please stop weasel wording just to get your way.

There are degrees of manipulation. Just because something was done in the past does not mean that it should be done today. Examples: fat shaming, racism, black face make up or slavery.

Imagery is what space crafts such as Voyager took with its scientific instruments.
