In the same time, it drives the new art form to rise up forward. By bringing Photoshop and other image edit software into the sphere of photographic art, so that this still image art has gone through a revolutionary change. Perhaps, people might have doubts about whether the edited still image belongs to the art of photography, as it betrayed the original intention of “realism”. In old times, the photos were the representation of truth, because people insist that to see is what you to believe. However, in nowadays, by using various editing tools, it is hard to believe what you see from a “hyperrealism” photo.
