Photo Manipulation & Ethics

1.

A. The article explains how some photographers plagiarize to get more attention to their pictures they have took. Some photographers have lost their jobs for altering pictures. Also goes on explaining that Altered pictures will get through the public, but to the professional photographers they will notice the flaws in them if they have been altered.

B. Its showing something to the world that isn't true, feeding them something that never existed, filling their minds with attraction to a picture the photographer knew would maybe give them a raise. If the world was okay with this then there wouldnt be a point to a famous photographer for capturing the worlds greatest moments if someone else can just take something and alter it to outdo what they cant on their own.

2.

A. The worst unethical change you can do to a picture is splicing two pictures together. Do to the fact that they both did not happen in the same frame so theirs no reason add two things to one frame and call yourself a photographer.

B.
The one that i would probably understand and not give them to much trouble on, would be the ones where they just switched the contrast on a frame, adding some color to the picture. Its still unethical in every way, but less punishable. Giving it a little more touch to a picture is okay, but also when not mentioned that on tabloids or your bosses is where you most likely wouldnt get the approval.
