How much editing is too much?

In today‘s video I want to continue a discussion that found its beginnings in the video I made about Samantha Cavet. Many comments under that video expressed their opinion on what they count as photography and what they would define as a different art form. This is an age old topic in the realm of photography to discuss and so I decided to make this video in which I try to show various perspectives but also focus on my own opinion and exchange my arguments with those in the comments.

An Outline In Space - Josh Mccausland
