New Life from Old - a photo on Flickriver

New Life from Old

            This is a re edit of a shot I took in the summer on a lovely misty morning just as the warm light came up... There was a fence about mid shot I never really liked... so used it as a bit of a learning exercise this afternoon to remove it. 

I know we all have our own lines about how much digital manipulation we are happy to include in our work and I'd say that is my limit! I'll remove a fence if I find it just distracting however generally I will try to find compositions including these features. But this day this was definitely the best angle to shoot the tree with the background and light and I preconceived removing the fence when I took the shot! 

What are your thoughts on what is acceptable and not acceptable to remove out a landscape shot by digital manipulation? No judgements here each to their own... peoples opinions on it just interest me. I guess my opinion is... its fine in moderation and if considered at the time of visualising the shot in the field.
