This derogatory implication: 'tricks', is wearing thin. If such unfounded and false accusation is going to be your only contribution to this coin why bother?
I guess I missed the part in my post where I explicitly accuse you of doing something. "Tricks of the light" does not imply any intent of one to deceive, it is merely a phrase used when lighting in an environment can make it difficult for one to interpret what is seen in a photo, that is all. If you think my post is accusatory, you are more than welcome to report it to the mods.
Better yet, why not ask something to the effect " can you rotate it x degrees CW and reimage it so I can see what is in (such and such) shadow?" or maybe about eliminating a certain glare you do not like. When I show an image to you all I have tried to get the best representation to the reality in hand. If that tricks anyone, oh well. Fact is there are no tricks in that image. Not any. But what part do you feel is trick?
