"Very cool, the detail you put into this is amazing, and you've really captured the depth of the scene. The steam coming from the building somehow makes me think of a movie where they introduce a scene by showing you a photo, and then the picture comes to life. I'm staring at it waiting for everyone to start moving. Abasourdissant!"
I hadn't think about it that way, but now...
I thought, maybe you would like to have a look at this :

I too dislike the word 'Photomanipulation' for its negative connotations. The style occupies all the same elements as Photomontage art, only the tools have changed to digital. Yet Photomontage is a highly respected art form, whereas Photomanipulation is associated with airbrushing celebrity pics.
I would like to use the word PhotoFusion for our style of art. Would you like to join the revolution. My friend Liam (Steampunk Overlord [link] ) is trying to get the term Cosplay changed to CosPro to articulate the professional style of costuming that is his art.
BTW, when I was a child I used to make huge collages of fairy pictures that I collected from cards and magazines and then draw into them.
Have a great Christmas Stefan
I was wondering, also, if we do have to include the word "photo", that sounds a bit restrictive, not mentionning the other than photographic elements, neither the digital graphism part. I was wondering if Graphic Fusion would make any sense for people, instead of Photo Fusion ? I don't know.
We'll have to think about it and it's great that we are "starting a new aesthetic school", or at least that we are naming it for the next centuries, isn't it ? After all, that was how things were done about Impressionism, Cubism, whatever...
In the meantime, have the very best of Christmas, too !
