[Leica] Editing

Wed Jul 31 18:13:09 PDT 2019

Hi Mark,
As you well know back in the days when newspapers' had a "city editor who quite often was also the "photo editor" whom upon editing the photos for the latest edition. Used a large pair of scissors' and would say out loud....."2 column!" 
And in a flash he chopped "edited the print" to a composition size to fit a 2 column page space. 
Most "city editors I have worked with have been "blind in both eyes" when it came to correct & true beautifying a picture page in beauty! Only to chop the photo to fit a "column size" DESTROYING IN MOST CASES THE "composition" BEAUTY of the photo completely!
cheers,
Dr. ted grant O.C.

I wonder what they use for the term "Editing" now  as it doesn’t mean "Editing" any more.
Part of this is that the thread name is "Editing" which for the whipper snappers out there are fixated on video rhetoric "Editing" means "processing". Although sometimes the word  "post" or "post processing" works.
It all makes sense I guess if you pretend you are making a video thing is we're not we are making photographs and you shoot the pictures , process them and print them and then edit the ones you're going to use in the end. Or edit the ones you are going to print.
So the thread "Editing" here really means just that. That’s enough to confuse a bunch of people. Not use though!

    Well, I'm not quite as old as you are, Ted, but I'm getting there!!

    You have always been an inspiration and are probably the reason I am still
    a photographer today.

    Lots of love from SC,

    TIna
