dove fashion (sorry i went overboard with this)

1. List the changes that were made to the model's face in the computer. (Look carefully)
 (before photoshop)she had her eyebrows filled in, had contacts put in, foundation and toner on, blush, fake eyelashes, eye liner, lip liner, lipstick and gloss, hair curled, (after photoshop) defined hair, sculpted the lips, made neck longer, took visible blemishes off, aligned her eyes and eye brows, sculpted the nose, defined eye color, curved her shoulders, popped out collarbones more, made face skinnier, made eyes bigger.
2. Is it ethically acceptable to change a person's appearance like this in a photo? Why or why not?
no because it looses reality and makes people believe in things that are not real, and people then eat their feeling like in mean girls, then they get bullied and everyone wants to look like something they are not, which makes this world so hard because everyone is trying to look like something that was created by a computer. everybody will die trying to be something that was never real which is actually the saddest part of this.
3. Are there circumstances in which it would be more ethically wrong to do this type of manipulation?
yes, photoshopping lets say, a video image that could prove that someone was innocent but being lied to and having their picture there instead of the actual killer. that persons life is ruined and no one will ever believe that he was innocent while we have a criminal loose on the streets. but then again, its also bad everyday to do this. it  warps reality and now a day people are so gullible that they try to be something thats fake and people set higher standards according to these pictures,
4. What types of changes are OK, and what aren't?
lilght is ok. 
whats not ok is to move someones head up or down in the video and change their have completely 
5. Explain what you think the differences are between fashion photography and photojournalism.
fashion photography uses so much more photoshop than photojournalism because fashion eople try to get others to buy their products and by having someone "ugly looking" isn't going to get them to their goal so the use ps to "enhance" their pictures tp turn someone average looking into 'OHMYGOSH I WANNA BE JUST LIKE HER/HIM' while photoj just chills and is like 'hey, this is what reality looks like. come check it out. you don't have to look like that'
6. What relationship does each type of photography have to reality, and how does this affect the ethical practice of each?
fashion believes that beauty is so much more valuable than reality because if they thought that reality was better they wouldn't do so much to change a persons look. 
photoj used the least amount of ps because they believe that people have the right to know how life actually is. there are no such things as ugly people, they just don't know how to dress. reality is one of the best things to some like photoj unless you're in the fashion industry.

lyto warm up

1. What did you see happen when you clicked on the photo? really high definition photos came up and they looked so good!
2. How does this new camera work? it lets you pick what you want the camera to focus on instead of letting it do it for you so you can get the pictures just how you want them
3. What do you think a photographer would have to know about to take this kind of photo (remember its a point-and-shoot, so its full manual mode, what do you need to know about) first you would need to know how to turn it on and then how to set it up because a lot of people break their cameras because they don't know how to work them. 
4. Is it worth the money? yes! i would go buy one if i found where they sold it because i would love to be a photographer when I'm older and i would sure love to get this make.

american soldier

         image #59 because its showing how they still have holiday spirit even when they're in a strange place fighting for their country and lives knowing that they might not come back that evening. its so close to home because my tia is still over seas and its the holidays.

A. How do these other features enhance the photographs? they enhance the pictures by added depth and perception to the image instead of just being plain and flat.

B. In what ways are videos better than photographs? Provide an example from the Denver Post Web site. in videos you can get a deeper angle on the things and see what parts move through out the video and in a picture you just see whats there and can't really get a clear idea of where things are headed towards

C. In what ways are photos better than videos? Provide an example from the Denver Post Web site.nin photographs you can save them forever and you can play the memory over again in your head while in videos you have them but you can't really see on the cd or cassette or anywhere else you might have them what the video is about and you can soon forget about it.
