CRASH!

CRASH!

This image of walls coming tumbling down was shot handheld from quite far away with a cheap telezoom at its maximum focal lenght. Cropped about 30% and heavily postprocessed -much much more this time than I usually do. And the result still looks quite decent - I am constantly amazed what modern consumer cameras can do - all of them no matter what brand one is shooting with. But on the other hand digital technology has made photography also much more complicated than it used to be unless one developed films him/herself.

i like the PP here . .. looks like we're attacked by robotic aliens; i also enjoy time in the digital lab, it's as gratifying as taking the shot , much more so than developing film once you get the hang of it ..cheers ;-)

There's a couple of other components that you didn't mention. You are the one holding the camera,and your mind is the one composing the shot and controlling the post processing.

Really well done.
