For example:
Had Tom Ruddock not enhanced the images we shot, I doubt I'd be posting them here.  However, I love his vision and his ability to see beyond the 'moment' and very much appreciate that he took the time to share his 'vision' this way. I would hardly call a photog of his caliber just a 'graphics guy', though. Just my lil

those are great shots... but it becomes more of an illustration than a photo... im not saying a photographer is a 'graphics guy' because he used photoshop... but you lose alot of the actual focus when u do this... shooting models is about having the model be the point of interest and be first thing u see when u look at the picture... the background dominates what should be the main focus (the model)... imo...
