I made them. I mean created, er, cobbled them together. I do have a set of round cards. Just between you and me and anyone else who happens along, is it okay to photograph things you might use for a physical collage and use them digitally? I mean I have a lot of things I’ve collected from magazines, books, cards that I had planned on using in a collage. How would that be any different than photographing it and using it? (I keep telling myself....and yet, I question the ethics of it.
lkr.
it‘s the never-ending debate that will never, er, end. technology, lines blur, blah blah.
In my *cough* considered opinion, the KISS principle applies. Also Occam’s Razor, which says moreorless the same thing but in more/longer words. That is, if it’s taken with a mobile, it’s a mobile image: if it’s not, it isn’t. Respect for intellectual property and other courtesies should be applied via proper attribution.
Segue: lack of attribution gets up my nose. I stopped following a FB digital art/collage page after one too many acknowledgements that the main (!) image ‘came from the internet’
