Fighting for the Underexposed By:

Why is the world still shooting traditional images
when Digital has the world by the pixel? I can ask
several other questions, but I think I will inform
deviants this time.





Traditional photography is the most accurate and
realistic image that one can have. So why not keep a
tradition?


TRADITIONAL= • A tradition is a story or a custom
that is memorized and passed down from generation to
generation, originally without the need for a writing
system. Tools to aid this process include poetic
devices such as rhyme and alliteration. The stories
thus preserved are also referred to as tradition, or
as part of an oral tradition. For example, it is now a
tradition to have a Christmas tree to celebrate
Christmas.

Who shoots the same thing every year? I do… Blah, L

It so happens to be that Digital imagery is the
prodigal son of Traditional photography, thus making
both parallel to each other. Without traditional, the
birth of dig would be still a dream. Inheriting most
features of traditional photography, digital
enhancements only improved the ability to produce the
exact desired image.

Traditional photography is the most accurate and
realistic image that one can have.
Unlike the constant fibbing of naughty little Digital
Photography, Traditional images just don't lie.
Traditional is here for the stay. It can never be
changed or manipulated. In digital photography, images
are artistically infinite,

EX: I mean come on; all are beautiful in mags,
commercials, and such. What does Angelina Jolie
really look like?

Digital and traditional photography are complimentary
arts. They have their respective places in the lives
of amateur and professional photographers. The
acquired skills in doing traditional photography will
definitely be passed on to the digital world. The
ability to modify an image to enhance it is absolutely
a plus. However, digital photography could also be
very time consuming, especially when we consider the
many possibilities of digital manipulation. More so,
there is an air of intrigue that still surrounds us in
going to the darkroom to produce the print that you
envisioned in your mind.

The world of photography has a room for both digital,
and the traditional photograph. There are only
numerous aspects revolving around the use of digital
photography versus traditional photography. After all,
digital photography is just another tool of
modernization showing the advancement of photography
in an ever-changing world. Let's just hope that
digital and traditional photographers can make the
best out of both worlds to produce the best work that
everyone would love to have in the world of
deviations.

Things aren't always what they seem.
