Well Dan, periodically someone will wonder at what point an image goes from being a photograph to being something else. It's been debated here and elsewhere to death. Yikes! But it's all a matter of personal opinion. I will offer my 2 pennies....for me it depends on the image. Some, I still consider photographs, and others I feel have crossed over into 2D. Personally, anything that has been manipulated to the point where I can no longer see the photo in my eyes becomes 2D. Others may disagree....and that is fine too. This image you've posted in my humble opinion is not a photograph....it may have started as one, or more photos combined, but I can no longer see that in the image. Therefore for me...it is 2D........and its really nice too mysnapz!

I am, therefore I create.......
