I think "brag" was the wrong term to use earlier....
Well, like I said, the heavy-handed manipulation of the central element in
the photo ruins it for me.
Quite obviously I don't recognize what it takes to get a picture published
on a magazine cover. Apparently the photographer does (he's the Pro, I'm
not). But then given that he is a Pro, perhaps he would avoid something so
obvious, and this photo enhancement was done by PopPhoto to make the image
look "better" to help move more copies off the magazine stand.
But I do recognize what I like, and overdone PhotoShop editing doesn't do
it for me. This is rapidly becoming one of my peeves, along with
double-exposed landscapes of the moon where the moon is the wrong size, is
illuminated from the wrong direction, and is in the wrong position in the
sky given the landscape underneath.
I'll spare you all any more of my mania :o..
