Maybe it's just me but there are very little true 'behind the scenes' photo's and some that just,.. takes a lot of time capturing. Like the Romantic couple, how else would that photo have been taken?
I had the same though ... same could be said about the dog trying to catch a ball underwater
Yeah exactly!!
I thought they were very clever, and just shows what can be achieved when thinking outside the box....well done !!
So what do all of you naysayers think movies are? Especially the ones with all of those special effects? I think this photography is fantastic and takes a heckuva lot of creativity!!!
Well, photography implies realism, and has been used as a tool to document reality, at least before advanced editing was invented. Much more so than fictional films and paintings, which utilize imagination
