Off to jail you go! 🤣
Really tho that was nicely edited. I also do that sometimes myself but I say do whatever you want. Photography purists are the only ones complaining and tbh nowadays almost everything is edited or retouched at some point. Photography shouldn't be limited to only just point and shoot, as we are in 2023 and tools should be utilized otherwise we'd get stuck in the past. :D
Thanks, mate. Well, it's not looking bad, but that fake blur is awful in most cases.
