Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

A good photographer processes the image until it reflects his vision of the subject. Optical noise captured by the sensor can be easily eliminated. Why not use the technology to create better art?

Or, in the immortal words of Paul Simon:

Kodachrome
They give us those nice bright colors
They give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world's a sunny day
I got a Nikon camera
I love to take a photograph
So mama don't take my Kodachrome away

No, natgeo is fine. So is kodachrome. Jacking up colors isn't art, and looks garish imo - and I have a calibrated photography monitor. But to each their own I guess.

I guess we just see things differently. But your tone here is pretty arrogant. I receive many compliments for these images.

And with all due respect to your opinion, Art is defined as:
the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination, typically in a visual form such as painting or sculpture, producing works to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power.

Which means I can do whatever I want with my photos, because "you are not the boss of me".
