..."that if you can do it in the film darkroom, it should be allowed"...therin lies the problem...unfortunately many here have never even picked up a film cam much less set foot in a darkroom.
{{{can you smell the stop bath...sigh}}}
This was one of my favs, still is...your "border" reminded me of an emulsion "smudge"...very cool stuff.

Going down in more ways than one. On a positive note...all the back page exposure without the 4 score I was destined to recieve.
I must have been a bit drunker than normal, as I probably could have come up with a conservative site council stamp of approval technique to limit my "underworld funk" attempt to just a true border. But I was too lazy to revisit it after I posted it.
I had this bizarre idea that enough people would see it my way, that if you can do it in the film darkroom, it should be allowed. But alas that concept may never catch on at this site. But don't worry if you need to clone out a fence, as that film impossibility is available in dpc's digital world.
So I'm bitter, what can I say? It's so upsetting that photography is limitedly defined on this site and that definition is fully accepted by most.
Though not bitter enough to make this my cliche, exiting rant as you might expect at this point. I enjoy the site too much. Moving on, I'll just have to try harder next time. |

I don't think this is going to survive a DQ request. |

Cool, but borders on digital art. Not sure about this one. |

If this was created within the editing rules, I'm impressed! |
