Edited = Fake?
Non-Edited = Real?
What is real and what is fake?

My answer is nothing is real,
and nothing is fake;
Everything is real,
and everything is fake.

Think about it and I will explain later.

I like to edit photo recently,  instead of mentioning which photos were edited, I will only tell you which photos are not edited from now on.

Can you see Red?
Can you see Green?
Can you see Blue?
Can you see the mixture of them (RGB) ?

No matter what colour they are,
They reflect the light from the sun,
The colours go through the lenses
or our eyes,
and reach the camera sensor (CMOS / CCD / Film),
or our retina.

The colour temperature and the lights wave length,
can be measurred,

But … …

The feeling that it brings to us,
cannot be compared.

Why … …

Red is Red,
Green is Green,
Blue is Blue … … can be measurred

Mr. A and Mr. B saw a RED apple,
Both of them call it”RED”
The same wave lengths of light
reaches their eyes
But from each of their retina
the signal changed when reach their mind.
Mr. B saw Green instead of Red,
But he still calls it Red,
Nobody know what went wrong,
Because he is not a colour blind,
He just has a different filter / post processor
in his mind.

Not only him…
Mr. A have a processor too…
Otherwise he won’t call it a RED apple.

Mr. A has the problem or Mr. B has the problem?
Nobody can tell.
But the apple’s colour remain the same.
It reflected the light at a constant wave length,
Unless it has rotten.

Everybody has a processor
That processor is called “Bias”.
What we see is real or fake?
We can’t say it is real and we can’t say it is fake,
… … unless we have removed our processor
- the ability to be bias,
Naming will not be important,
Green or Red…  who cares
as long as the truth was uncovered,
The apple remains the same colour.

Can you understand what I was talking about?  If not just ignore it.  Hmm…  It may be too technical.  When I see the photo above I started to blah blah blah again.

This is a big concrete jetty where not only human can reach, but cars too.

Compare and look at the3rd and 4th photos above, they are small wooden private jetties for the personal use of the fishermen.  They are small, not hard enough when you stepped on it (I afraid), but cute.

The leg of the concrete jetty has stones and sea shells stuck on it after years of interacting with the sea.  It’s getting more and more, thicker and thicker…

Standing at the jetty, and looking back.

Fishing…for fishermen, it is good;  for fish, they afraid that this happen to them, but when it happens they feel cheated, and it’s too late for them.

A floating jetty.

How many boats are there?  and how many wooden sticks are there?

Free parking space.

From this angle, it seems that the fishermen’s life were busy.

Fishing net.

Our photo again.
