I'm sorry, but I just don't know how you can say that a picture created entirely on the computer is a photograph. That would be graphic art or computer-generated art or something. Not a "photograph". Just my thoughts.
I'm with you Leslie. Send the 'computer generated images' to another gallery.

It seems to be largely ignored that Chris said only the figure is generated by a human using a computer. The background image is a photo created in a camera. Now I don't really like the Bryce figures; I find them to be wooden and sort of creepy. But, in this case, they exist in a photographic world. Now if Chris also generated the scenery in Bryce, which is easily doable, I could understand all of the criticism. Thus far that has not been the case. Personally, I don't appreciate the results but it seems that it belongs in this forum as much as any Photoshop doctored image.
