How do art schools/studios detect plagiarism for digital art in Photoshop?
Let's say you're given an assignment or work requirement to create some sort of character model or character design in Photoshop from scratch. How can they tell if you didn't just copy a character model from google or someone else's photoshop file that you found online that has all the layers saved, etc

Why can't DSLRs do HDR as well as phones can?
Favourite answer:UPDATE: I rethought my answer and deleted and replaced my original answer with the following (there was one thumbs up for the old answer):
Pentax does in camera HDR, and I'll put those results up against any phone any day of the week and twice on Sunday. The images from phones look good because you're looking at them on a small LCD screen. This is far too small for the human eye to see any defects due to poor lens design or the horrendous amount of noise that phones produce even at base ISO. You don't know what you are giving up for the convenience of a phone. I think if more people did, there would be a lot more people using actual dedicated cameras instead of phones.
Your question is obviously based upon your personal experience of the major DSLR brands, namely Canon and Nikon, which is understandable. However, Pentax DSLR bodies do a lot of things that Canon & Nikon bodies don't such as in-body image stabilization (IBIS), astrotracer, and pixel shift are all things in most Pentax bodies (even the entry level ones) but not in any Nikon or Canon DSLR. Why? Because Canon and Nikon know that don't have to. They know consumers will buy their cameras because of the name. Pentax, on the other hand, doesn't have that name recognition and therefore, they have to put more tech in their cameras to entice people to even consider them over Canon or Nikon. Have you ever considered Pentax? Probably not because of the fantastic marketing of Canon & Nikon that promotes the idea that if you want great pictures, then you have to be using a Canon or Nikon, which is simply BS; just ask any Holga owner. I know, I bought into the marketing BS, too. I used to be a Canon and Holga shooter and had you told me that one day I would be shooting Pentax and loving it, I'd think you're crazy.
So, you see, DSLRs do, do the things that phones do and a lot better, too.

there is no right or wrong in photography composition, just a matter of taste and preference?
Favourite answer:Sure, as long as you are the only person that is going to look at the pictures, but if you want others to see them and like them then its a false statement.

Is it acceptable or rude to send my photographer some examples of photos I'd like at our wedding?
I don't want my photographer to think she doesn't know how to do her job if I send her some photos of poses I'd really like her to capture for me. But at the same time I'd really like to have certain photos! Is it acceptable to email her 4-5 photos of specific shots I'd really like her to take of my soon-to-be husband & I or would that just be rude? Thanks!

I have the Canon PowerShot G1 X Mk III. It has a crop sensor in it, but I can't help but feel like my images are the same as my phone?
What's the deal with that?? Why does the quality feel the same on my crop sensor as it is on my tiny phone camera (Note 10)?
Shooting during the day, good 👍
Shooting in low light, 👎 forget about it... it's garbage.
Same as my phone's camera...
I used to have the 70d and the 80d, and and I never felt like the quality of those crop sensors were garbage in low light, so what's the deal with this crop sensor sized point and shoot being so bad?

When and by whom was photography invented?
I think it was invented in the 19th century in Italy, but I do not know the exact year or the name of the inventor.
I understand that before the photographic camera there was a device called a 'camera obscura' [Italian for 'dark room'] which projected an image, it need a means to fix the image.
A camera obscura was used by artists to help with perspective etc.

is 78 years old too late to become an good artist?
I know about Grandma Moses who was 78 when she started painting but her art was not all that realistic. I want to become a hyper-realistic artist focusing on the female form but I have zero experience with drawing. I waited this long because I figured if Joe Biden can wait until he is 78 to become president successfully, I can wait until I am 78 to become a successful artist because being an artist is easier than the most difficult job on the planet which is being president..
