Indeed; what the heck happened to the poor woman from the waist down? Is
this, perhaps, a "sanitized" version [different from the competition
entry]
intended for web consumption? It is troubling to think that, after all
the
rules for film and simplicity, the judges would allow a scanned and
seriously altered image. If you're going to allow scanning, photoshop,
etc,
why insist on film to begin with?
Funny you should mention that.
The picture is a crop, but what I am showing is just a downsized and
sharpened version of what I submitted.
I found it annoying that they wouldn't let me shoot digital, especially
considering that every print except mine, the number two picture, and one
that was obviously a badly done darkroom manipulation, were printed on a
digital photo printer at London Drugs.
