National Geographic Photos and Ethics in Photography

This is my favorite picture because I love how you can see what there looking at through the reflection of their eye. I also like how you notice all the details because its taken so close to their eye. I just like how you can notice everything you wouldn't notice if you didn't look closely at the picture. 

I would submit a picture of the slanted building in Rome to be in the contest because its an amazing picture and its amazing how its still standing if its slanted. It a unique piece of art because the buildings are always straight never slanted its something different then what we normally see. 

Photo Manipulation and Ethics

The story is talking about how all the pictures that were being posted on the internet or on the newspaper were being Photoshop to make them look different then the original ones. This was happening in the month of April it was something very strange that had never happened before and they didn't know why it started in April. Whoever was doing this was making an unprecedented violations. 

This type of photo editing is unethical because its making fun of the person in the picture and its not a professional thing to do. Its ruining a photographers perfect picture by transforming it to a different picture trying to make fun of the picture they have taken.

                            
Before:                                                     After:
I think this picture was the most unethical because they totally changed the front cover of the magazine. They decided to put a picture up of a colored person so they can make it seem that they have a diverse campus. There being racist because they're trying to make a black guy fit in with the white crowd. This is offending the black guy in this picture because their making it seem like something when that's not really not even happening.


This picture isn't as bad as the other ones because all they did was move the pyramids closer together. It didn't really hurt anyone or bother anyone because it was just a slight change to a physical feature. It didn't make fun of anyone or anything they just wanted to make the picture smaller so it could fit the front cover of the magazine.
