BEFORE AND AFTER IMAGES

What is the difference between art and photography? A painter uses paint to create an image, while a photographer uses light. Light cannot be mixed or manipulated in the same ways that paint or pigments can, but a photographer can manipulate light work within its limits.

There is no step-by-step recipe for creating art. Some are born with it, some try and learn, others will never see it. At the end of the day the beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.

I am using Photoshop for post-production. For portrait photos I make some color adjustments and sharpening. I also remove any distractions from the image, and if necessary also crop the image. For artistic images I can change the background, change the colors, use different filters to mention some of the changes.
