Photo Manipulation and Ethics

A. The main point is that photoshop can be good or bad. Most people use it to mess with picture, and other make bad ideas out of them. Also it talks about different stories, and the bad outcome.

B. Its sometimes unethical, cause bad things can come out of the photoshop.

A.. This the most unethical, cause manipulations to make it look like the soldier is telling the poor guy and kid to stay back, but in the original he was waiting for them to come.


B. Its not the bad cause they just fixed her teeth its not like they photoshopped her whole face and change other things.

       This is my best photo i took out of the ones i took.  I picked this photo because its caught off guard, also he was kinda smiling and he wasn't trying to hard to pay attention to the camera.
This is the worst photo i took. I picked this photo because he was blinking and was about to say something so it makes him look weird and i zoomed in too much, also i didn't like the angle i shot this picture.
