ABSTRACT
There are numerous photographic methods to get from an appealing subject to a fascinating image. To the observer, none of them are of any consequence, because to him or her, the final image is the only reference. If the image is poor to begin with, there is no need to explore it any further. If it is a striking image, however, who cares how it was made? Photographers, on the other hand, do care, because technical expertise and craftsmanship are part of their creative process, and they are always interested in opportunities to explore new techniques and improve their skill.
