Mis, true that a little bit of noise actually adds great sentiment to photographs
I do not like squeaky clean images most of the time where it would appear to be bland and plasticky
Well James, the point of the article goes way beyond aesthetic considerations, showing that in order for an image to be “clean”, it actually has to have a certain amount of noise. If it didn’t have noise it would look unnatural to us. How’s that for irony!?
That is indeed ironic and even a bit humorous in a nerdy kind of way.
Thanks for the heads up, about the article. Interesting for sure.
