Photo Editing vs Photo Manipulation: Is There a Limit? [REMIX]
Outdoor Photography Podcast
03/15/22 • 23 min
Episode 50: This (remixed) Tidbit Tuesday is a little more philosophical in nature as I answer two of our listener questions around photo manipulation - whether that is done in the field or in the digital darkroom. Is there a difference between photo editing and photo manipulation? And if so, where’s the line? Who makes that call? Should you disclose when you have manipulated an image? What are the implications if you do or don’t? Learn how this debate has transpired over the relatively short life of photography as an artform and how it can inform our decisions about how we approach our creative practices with our photography.
In this episode, I discuss:
- The practice of photo manipulation throughout the history of photography
- The debate about photo editing versus photo manipulation when it comes to landscape and nature photography
- Three points to consider when deciding how much editing is acceptable in your own photography
- And more!

How to Protect Yourself From Ticks [REPLAY]
Outdoor Photography Podcast
10/11/22 • 12 min
Episode 80: In today’s quick Tidbit Tuesday, I share five quick tips on how to protect yourself from contracting a tick-borne illness after spending time in nature. Ticks are prevalent all over the world, and while their bites are sometimes harmless, they can also transmit pathogens that cause pretty debilitating diseases. Preventing bites in the first place can go a long way in keeping you safe from these little critters.
