This is an interesting article regarding digital manipulation of nature images. Not taking sides on this one...just putting it out there so you all can vote/see results for yourselves.

Glad you posted this. I saw it, and shared it on Facebook as well. It raises interesting questions. I found some of the images and lack of disclosure very concerning.

Yes, this is quite interesting. I suppose "nature" photography could include many things, but as noted above, there seems to be a wide range of what people have disclosed about their photographs.

Food for Thought, for sure. With the ability to manipulate images with Photoshop, the lines of "acceptible" must be clearly stated for contests and other entries.

Interesting, Sharon. What struck me was the wide division of opinion on what's acceptable.
