... spoke to an illustration student recently, and the conversation came around to overprocessed digital images; his comment was that most of his professors that detest overprocessing of photos were hardwired through their film days in expecting photography to be a "descriptive medium"; in his words "..with so much ability to enhance one's vision, why limit yourself to reality?...". Point taken. this, keep in mind comes from an illustrator, not a photographer, but I tend to agree with the opinion that photography is not just descriptive; it is the medium to express one's vision; in that respect, I believe if the intent is to create a surreal photograph, the result should be judged as such.
I think some of the images by BEELITZ are very well done. They are photography transformed into illustration, art, what have you; they are not traditional photography, so judging them under the light of traditional photog is not really comparing apples to apples.
