>>4471946>99% of my shots are unedited after scanSo do you exclusively shoot slides or do you just say fuck it and post photos where people's skin are blue?
If your negatives' colours are inverted then it's edited, moron
Just not by you, but they sure are edited
Not to mention everything in the process is editing
Choosing double-x, portra or foma is editing
Using Rodinal or D-76 or whatever has an impact on the looks of how your latent image is developed and is editing
Developing at 20°C or 15°C or 46°C is editing
There's no such thing as an unedited image (even slides, although we could try and have the digital image be as loyal to the slide image as possible)
Rid yourself of the illusion of purity and understand that "not editing your photos" simply means you're letting the standard settings of a scanning machine or a tech lab do this work
Letting the final look of your photos be determined by the lab tech/machine is like cooking a meal and then letting a McDonald's burger flipper plate it
>tl;dr be in charge of editing your photos because they sure as hell ARE edited
