A PJ was fired for manipulating a photo from Iraq. A news photog has to keep things simple. No altering of any kind should take place on a news photo.

I'm very happy to finally have a shot in the paper but there is one thing that bugs me about this shot.


The kid in the backround is going to hate how he looks in the photo and it could have easily been fixed in PS. Simply plop someones eyes where his should have been.

Thoughts.

Funny, I just read about that LA Times Photographer that was fired for merging two images he took in Iraq; all for dramatic effect! So the kid might hate his look in the paper - but he is in the paper no less.

PJ is about capturing those moments in life - regardless how they look.
