Photo Manipulation and Ethics

Summary: That on april fools day photographers tend to fool with a image that they had taken. Most of these pictures made the newspapers or got known of the internet. The photographers got fired from there jobs for tampering with pictures that they posted on the newspaper or the internet.

 I think is both acceptable and unethical it all depends on how you decide to edit the picture if you use it to make fun of the image or to make someone look bad its unethical. But if its to help how the image looks and it doesn't offend or make someone look bad its acceptable.



I think this is the most unethical because they used   edit to make the peoples appearance bad even if its not.


















This manipulation is the least unethical picture because they only moved the pyramids more closer to make the cover of there magazine look good.
                                                                                                                                                               

National Geographic Warm-Up

This is my favorite picture because not everyone sees these kind of things that you see in the picture the light that is coming from the sun and the sand make a cool light in this canyon. I like how the light goes from dark to light. Also i like how the canyon walls glow from the light.

I would summit a picture of the moon glowing in the dark sky or a picture of the little things in this world like insects or plants in the sun.

Touching People

1.)What do you think about this project and photo essay?
I think its an awkward topic because its taking pictures of people that are touching but they don't know each other. Why would they like to make the picture awkward?

2.)What would you do if someone approached you with camera and asked you to participate in a photo shoot and the asked you to touch a stranger? I would tell them sure but i would think there weird for asking me to touch a stranger. I would provably have a face expression of how awkward it is.

3.)Think of an unusual photo similar to this one that you think would be fun to go and shoot.
Ask two strangers to hug each other and let us take a picture. Ask two strangers to high five.

4.)Finally, tell me what you thought of the photography, are the photos good? Do you like looking at them? I think its a weird and i don't think there good pictures because there faces expressions on there faces are awkward. They don't look like they want to take the picture. I didn't like the pictures.

40 Greatest Photos Taken

                                                                                    Image by Mark Pardew/ Reuters
What made me chose this photo is that it shows a human help a animal when it was in need of water and he gave him water.
This made the 40 greatest photos because it has a person having contact with a wild animal and also because it shows the person helping this animal.







                                           

What made me pick this photo was that a air side view of a rebel that stood up to the tanks when he knew that the tank could just crush him or they could kill him.
This made the 40 greatest photos because it shows a normal protester stand up to the military tanks because he is standing up for what he thinks is right.

What made me pick this photo out of all the other ones is that it was taken out of this planet and was taken in the moon and not many photographers get the chance to do this.
This made the 40 greatest photos because it was taken in the moon and because it shows the earth from a far view its a pretty cool picture.
