Photo Manipulation and Ethics

A.  Manipulation can/ should only b used in certain cases, if t all. It is a big deal to change photos because photography is about capturing what really happened, not what will look good.

B.  The New York Times andWashington Post are both very serious about photo editing and manipulation. They have strict guidelines that their photographers have to follow.

C.  I think minor things like slightly changing a color or slightly changing a person to make then look more appealing. However i do not think that large changes to a person are ok. Also a major color change is not ethical.

D.  I think this image is the most unethical because it changes the image completely. It also changes how people think of the picture. This makes him look very menacing and evil , while the original makes him look fairly normal. 

E. I think this photo is the least unethical because it is just a small simple change. It only slightly changes the woman's teeth by straightening them to make her look prettier in the magazine.
