ETHICS IMAGE
I think that a photojournalists should be situational because when u need to change a zit on a face that should be a reason to not have it absolute. A photo cannot capture the truth because when ur at different angles it captures things differently and a picture cannot explain without words. I don't think its right to edit reality, its only right when they are small things like a zit. Its important that news organizations have clearly defined ethical standards because its not right to change reality.
FASHION ETHICS
The model in the Dove Evolution of Beauty Video had changes made to her like they lifted up her eyebrows, made her eyes bigger and moved them down, made her neck longer, they moved her shoulders more closer in, made her cheeks less big so they reduced them. I dont think its right for them to change a person like that because thats how peole view beauty differently and if they change it then its not telling the truth. It is especially bad to change a picture like a man pointing a gun to a persons face then they change it to not pointing at the man. It's not wrong to change a zit or teeth. I think the difference between fashion photography and photojournalism is that in journalism u write about the photos you just took and in fashion photography u edit and change things to make it look fashionable.

Famous Examples


This picture is the most unethical to me because in the real picture the soilder is pointing the gun straight at the man and his child. It's horrible to know that a soilder is doing that so they don't want the public to see the real picture because they know they will get mad so they dont tell the truth.
Ethics Intro-Photo Manipulation
The article was about that the University of Wisconsin-Madison as a racially diverse campus, the university officials digitally inserted a black student's face into a photograph of white Badger football fans that was used on the cover of their new undergraduate application.
They said "this was not an attempt - ever - to mislead, but to show the diversity that exists on campus," said Seltzer, who described his decision as an "error in judgment.""We probably tried too hard, and we did the wrong thing.""The decision is not the problem," Shabazz said in an interview. "The problem exists in the general lack of diversity on campus. The problem exists in the ineffectiveness of current university policies to change the environment . . . "
I think it was wrong for the University of Wisconsin-Madison to add a photo that really didn't exist because its not right to add something or erase something in the picture that is not really telling the truth.

FUNNY CAPTIONS

Sugar Hill
Melanie used the rule of thirds, and she captured action and emotion in her pictures that she shot.
Since she used emotion in the pictures it made the slideshow sad and the meaning was to help people because they are dying.
I explored the whole page and noticed that all the pictures capture people in action and emotion.

PRINTING POST
First i cleaned my negatives..I dipped it in a liquid for about 30 seconds.
After that i loaded it into an enlarger and i focused my image. I got to choose
what i wanted in the picture and what I wanted out of it. I then made a test
strip and we got to choose from 4 different lightings and I chose what made
my picture look better. I then made my final strip and printed out my picture.
I dipped in the developer for 1 minute then in the stop bath for 15 seconds and i
dipped it in for 2 minutes and let it rinse out in water for 5 minutes.

SIMPLICITY
AVOIDING MERGES
THIS PICTURES IS AVOIDING MERGES BECAUSE THERES
NOTHING IN THE BACKGROUND AND ITS ONLY THE SUBJECT IN THE PICTURE.

NOTHING IN THE BACKGROUND AND ITS ONLY THE SUBJECT IN THE PICTURE.
LIKE THEY ARE REALLY SAD SO FRAMING CATCHES THE SUBJECT AND GIVES YOU THE MOOD.
PREFER PICTURES IN WHICH PEOPLE ARE NOT IN THE MIDDLE BUT ON THE SIDES OF PICTURES.
ON THE BOTTOM. THEY GO STRAIGHT DOWN SO THE EYE FOLLOWS IT AND IT
LEADS TO THE SOILDERS.
SIMPLICITY
MAKES IT LOOK SIMPLE. THE PEOPLE IN THE BACKGROUND ARE
BLURRY AND FUZZY AND U CANT SEE THEM SO THE EYE GOES TOWARS
THE IMAGE IN FOCUS.
