Removing unwanted subjects from a picture can be done using various techniques,
And for this reason you need to always consider the context and intended use of the image before removing unwanted subjects, as it may alter the original meaning or authenticity of the photo.
Manipulation and photography are two different concepts in the context of image creation:
Photography:
- Capturing real-life moments, scenes, or subjects through a camera lens
- Recording light and shadow to create an image
- Aimed at documenting, preserving, or artistic expression
- Typically involves minimal alteration or enhancement
Manipulation:
- Altering or modifying an image beyond its original capture
- Using software, editing tools, or techniques to change the image's content, meaning, or appearance
- Can include adding, removing, or modifying elements, such as objects, people, or backgrounds
- Often used for creative, artistic, or commercial purposes
Key differences:
- Photography focuses on capturing reality, while manipulation involves altering reality
- Photography tends to be more objective, whereas manipulation can be subjective
- Photography typically aims to preserve the original moment or scene, whereas manipulation can transform the image into something entirely new
However, it's important to note that the lines between photography and manipulation can blur, especially in the digital age. Some photographers may use editing software to enhance or manipulate their images, while others may use manipulation techniques to create entirely new artworks. Ultimately, the distinction between photography and manipulation depends on the context, intent, and creative vision of the image maker.

There are several types of photography lighting, and I will always tell you to shape your skills into this lights as they are very much important in your journey as a photographer, see below as I highlight few from all.
1. Natural Light: Using sunlight or available light to illuminate the subject.
2. Artificial Light: Using man-made light sources like studio strobes, flashes, or continuous lights.
3. Soft Light: Soft, diffused light that minimizes shadows and is often used for portraits.
4. Hard Light: Direct, concentrated light that creates strong shadows and is often used for dramatic effects.
5. Warm Light: Light with a yellow or golden tone, often associated with sunlight or indoor lighting.
6. Cool Light: Light with a blue or purple tone, often used to create a calm or neutral atmosphere.
7. High-Key Light: Bright, even lighting that minimizes shadows and is often used for product photography.
8. Low-Key Light: Dim, moody lighting that emphasizes shadows and is often used for dramatic portraits.
9. Sidelight: Light coming from the side, often used to create depth and emphasize textures.
10. Backlight: Light coming from behind the subject, often used to create a silhouette or separate the subject from the background.
11. Uplighting: Light coming from below the subject, often used to create a dramatic or mysterious effect.
12. Diffused Light: Softened light that scatters in multiple directions, often used to reduce harsh shadows.
13. Reflected Light: Light that bounces off a surface, often used to add depth or interest to an image.
14. Continuous Light: Light that stays on continuously, often used for video or still photography.
15. Strobe Light: Brief, intense bursts of light, often used for freezing motion or creating a sense of drama.
