Bass Attacking Jitterbug is not Photoshopped,

Bullbutter!!!!!!!!

It goes the law of physics that a bass with its head half out of the water, will not create some motion of that water.

You mean a report here? No journalistic integrity required to post on here. Using a fake name helps too.

Forgive me while I clean the boogers that flew out my nose onto my phone at the suggestion that forum post have journalistic integrity, hilarious. Good grief next thing you know someone will demand grammatic accuracy. if that's the case uneducated rabel like myself will have to bow out. When these threads devolve into mindless blather nobody can really win an argument. It's much like when barroom blowhards get into a debate about things they know little of. In the end everyone goes home, sobers up so they can do it again the next night. Nothing learned, nothing accomplished, just another hangover.

I won't say it was photoshopped, but I bet if you could zoom out you would see someone holding the tail of that fish so it was poised right in front of the jitterbug. Or maybe they just have tons of curious fish that come and slowly look at topwater baits without pouncing on them. Either way I don't see any reason for Ron to lie about photoshopping these fish, staging a picture is a different subject.

You 2D guys need to expand your minds, don't limit your mind with 2D. 3D is here to stay. This is the next big leap in photonics. Microsoft has a similar product to this for $300

ps. Chief using God references...gotta love it

I don't know nearly enough to have an educated guess as to whether this particular photo was doctored or not. The real question is who cares, and is it really worth playing amateur detective? LOL

Amateur detective???? Nothing of the sort.

As I said, I try to get thing right at time of capture, keeping post production to a minimum. Bass attaching Jitter is not "Photoshopped."

Try selling crazy someplace else. We're all stocked up here.

Neither are these two. Using any of the pictures I post here without permission or purchase is a copyright infringement.

Not sure you could get it to stick, but, ok.

Flatlander means I can see far beyond what you ditch-dwellers can. :D

Hey now them is called hollers! Being jealous that we can zip line across them is no reason to.....ah....that could be a new add campain for the tourism board. "Come to Missouri...our ditches are so big and deep, we can zip line across them!" Huh, whatcha think??? Yeah, I agree, it stinks.

Anyhoo -- if an old photo in a current report here is used to deceive the reader, it's clearly wrong.

If it's to better tell the story of how the day went, well, that's a tad better -- but still questionable enough that I wouldn't do it here without disclosing it. It's pretty routine stuff in publications though.

I have seen it happen a couple of times here.

Physics states that image of the bass attacking that lure is fake, as is Ron's credibility in defending his photographic integrity. Sorry, but anyone over the age of seven can tell you that bass, did not attack that lure in that spot at that time. The water ripples when a bass attacks a topwater lure because of the rate of motion of the bass. There are so few ripples there that I couldn't fart in the water and come back with less.

For me, photography is about creating an image that is pleasing to me and hopefully others. I view photography as a form of art, and not a journalistic reporting tool. So there is no question whether I will post process an image or not. If an image makes it through to edits, then it will get post-processed. My post-processing generally includes edits to exposure, saturation levels, contrast levels, sharpening (basic edits). My opinion is that any photographer that earns a living with a lens, will post-process. But for me, and probably Cheif Grey Bear and Al Agnew and ness, post-processing is different than "photoshopping". The question then becomes, where does the line get drawn? I am not sure, but it is an interesting question. I guess it begins with what your view of photography is.
