- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
IMO, this Beginners Forum section should be filled with technical questions, not requests for C&C.
I would opine that (and I say this with all due respect for KmH's level of experience as a professional photographer and author), in many cases, the technical questions are the result of C&C gained from more experienced photographers. It would seem the easy solution for an experienced photographer who does not like to provide C&C to beginners would simply be to choose not to do so. Those who choose to do so could continue in that practice and assist beginners who appreciate the effort and find it to be a valuable part of their learning process. I know that for me personally, the C&C of experienced photographers is simply one part of my learning process. I have been reading just about every book on photography that I can get (I think I'm on my 4th time reading Understanding Exposure). I have attended some classes and training. I have been practicing...a lot. And, in addition, I have submitted photos for feedback so I can add those opinions and suggestions to my toolbox. I can only speak for myself, but I know that, as a beginner, I find that C&C to be valuable, even when harsh.
Respectfully,
Gonzo
