Thanks. Sorry for the quality, it get's so compressed when it's posted.

Tome gun: As a newbie, I have a question. I have Aperture, Lightroom 4 and Elements 10. Can Elements 11 now replace them all?
Has anyone used PSE11 on a dual monitor system yet? I've used all iterations since the beginning of time and some versions worked and some didn't. My current 10 originally let me put the organizer on one screen and the editor on the other, but decided at some point it wouldn't do it anymore.
chkproductions: HDR, when use correctly, is the same intent Ansel Adams, Minor White, and Edward Weston had when developing and using the Zone System - the ability to manipulate exposure, developing times and printing to capture details throughout the range of reflected light of a subject from film that could not otherwise record the scene as those photographers wanted it presented to the viewer.
HDR is the current interpretation of that process and when used correctly, does well at allowing the photographer to present a scene as they want it seen and can also be used well to capture and present a scene in the reality of tonalities as it was seen.
Agreed. Perhaps it's "to create a realistic look" but even reality is subjective.

You don't "explain" a photograph. It defeats its purpose.
Dvlee: I've done alot of aerial photography from a helicopter and I've used a remote controled model helicopter. Actually going up in the helipcopter is way more fun than using the RC platform.
Making great pictures is only part of the reason I got into photography...the other is that the act of taking photographs is so much fun.
The willingness and ability to be in he right place at the right time is one of the reasons we are hired as photographers. But now they are going to hire a technician to mount the camera and the photographer does not even have to be on the scene to take the shot...he could be locked away in a mobile vehicle far away from the location like the TV crews.
That takes all the fun out of it.
I agree. Today's photography is more about equipment than vision. It is less a craft, and more a technology.
openskyline: so fake. buy canon f1.8
Agreed. Not even close to real shallow DOF. Zeiss 135 ++
All this change, whether for better or worse, is here to stay. But really, hasn't it been the technology that has driven this change and not really the need of the process (visual communications)? It seems just because we "can" we "do"
I've been working as a photographer/producer/director for many years and remember well the days that an editor and I would be in disgust that we had to shoot and edit a project in video and not film.
Now a vid is cut in Starbucks in an afternoon.
