When Reality Looks Better Than Photoshop: 22 Incredible Photos Of Cappadocia, Turkey
Cappadocia is a region of Turkey, which is characterized by an extremely interesting landscape of volcanic origin, the underground city, established in 1 thousand. BC. e. and extensive cave monasteries, leading its history since the days of the early Christians. This area is known for a year-round daily mass launch of hot air balloons.
People in Cappadocia lived and live in amazing shape carved in the rock shelters. Shape "stone pillars" was due to the eruption of volcanoes and lava covering the tuff - soft rock. And then water and ice have transformed the valley into separate hills. The incredible landscape, the form of rocks and daily flights of colorful balloons transferred to a fairy tale.

Are you saying Photoshop had nothing to do with the colors and contrasts? Because it totally did have.

I did this hot air balloon thing in Cappadocia when I lived in Turkey. Yes, it was beautiful, but still, Photoshop outdoes reality.

Photoshop was used. Would be better if there was no filters or Photoshopping colors or contrasts.

There is plenty of manipulation of these images either by using camera settings (e.g., HDR) or some sort of color manipulation. These are not "real life." Real life doesn't come with such brilliant highlights and over-saturated tones. Photoshop isn't limited to just brushing things up to hide flaws or adding and subtracting details. It's also color and sharpening manipulation. These photos are of interesting things and well-framed, but they've been seriously tweaked to make them appear more vibrant than reality.

Um. Excuse me. If there's beauty amongst suffering, why shouldn't people see it?! It gives others something to hold on to! You don't know the story of the people who took these photos. Maybe the landscapes are the only things keeping them sane at the moment. Don't you start with "Fake news" if you don't know the WHOLE STORY.
