Using Photoshop

Two more posts for class and then we can make this blog mine.  First of all I want to talk about the ethics of using Photoshop.  I think that it can be both ethical and non-ethical depending on the situation.  If you are editing a photo to take out damaged areas or to enhance the photo that it is completely ethical.  If you are editing the photo to change the appearance of the subjects in the photo then I do not believe it is ethical. The reason I think this is because of the many images of models out there that are altered that give a false impression to youth and adults alike about their need to be perfect.  If we understand that the human body is rarely perfect than we can be more comfortable with the image of ourselves that we have.
