I mean, if you're going to do it, learn some skills. Clouds and smoke are hard to do, though. I will help for $50 an hour.

OH NOES! TWO TOWERBLOCKS ARE BUILT IN THE SAME FASION OMG OMG OMG OMG.
Isn't the obvious clone stamping of the smoke, complete with shitty blurs, more indicative?
edgDo you realize that you've just posted an admission of ignorance so breathtaking that it disqualifies you from commenting on any political or economic threads from here on out?

This is another case in the news: http://www.pdnonline.com/pdn/newswir..._id=1002914629
Much less obvious, and I think the guy got a raw deal by getting fired. Just wanted to make a pretty picture, like Life and Look used to do all the time. Shows how paranoid newsy people are about the new digital world.

I don't see why they should. Photographs are all interpretations on a scene - he's taken it one step further. There is a question of the ethics of photo-manipulation, but if you truely still believe the camera never lies, that's pretty naive...

The really sad part is that it is still less manipulated than the rest of the news.

I think the problem with the photoshopping here is that it was used on a journalistic piece. Jouralism is supposed to be raw and unmanipulated...portraying the scene as it really looked. I can understand color correction, sharpening, etc, but no way should a journalistic piece include any creative cloning or rubber stamping like we see here.

Reuters withdraws all photos by Lebanese freelance Originally Posted by Cornholio
Reuters withdrew all 920 photographs by a freelance Lebanese photographer from its database on Monday after an urgent review of his work showed he had altered two images from the conflict between Israel and the armed group Hizbollah.If you have a problem & think that someone else is going to solve it for you then you have two problems.
