But when you are aware of this difference, if you are aware, that a picture is only the idea of a thing or a person, you also have to give up the thesis, that a photo alway shows reality. They don´t even claim to be reality. So nobody has the right to blame me, if my photos mix reality, they mix coulor, they are -bluntly spoken- unreal. They don´t disguise being the result of reworking, the end of a edeting process, a trancription or compilation. There are many words for this process. Only one word I do not use: Manipulation. That is to negative. Because, the changes of an image I dont realise with my hands (mani-pulare), I do it with my brain.
