Paul, If you don't mind, I am just very curious, -- how do they (NYT) define "retouching"?

I.m not allowed to alter photos for The New York Times and had to sign a contract to that effect. There was a hot spot in the door of the Hyundai Genesis pic I shot at the auto show that i would have liked to have removed, but couldn.t. I later provided the same photo to Assouline, a book publisher, for a Hyundai book I.m working on. Before sending it to them, I did some retouching. News is reality. Advertising and promotions are make believe. Two different worlds, two different photographic standards. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
