Photo stacking

[pawelm]

Hi guys,

I'm just curious, is stacking photos to get the clouds motion effect considered as digital manipulation? I'm asking about that sort of stuff: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=uLgHZFgwcWI

Or, is using ND filters for day time long exposure shots considered as manipulation?

Thanks

There is a thread on the forum where it was stated that "Multiple-exposure 'stacked' images are not allowed, and would be rejected for manipulation.".

ND filters seem to be tolerated but I think it would be better if a screener could confirm it.

Stacking multiple exposures into a single frame is not allowed.

Using a physical filter is allowed. Using digital editing to re-create the effect of a physical filter is not allowed.

Seems there are some photos using this technique in the database.

They look stunning since they use this technique. Why forbid it?
