What are the limits of photo manipulation in photojournalism?

Photojournalism is the specific photographic art of telling a story through a picture. The works of famous photojournalists are housed in most of America’s great museums. In addition museums and galleries will frequently display the works of the finest photojournalists like Mary Ellen Mark and Eddy Adams.

Sometimes the photo is accompanied with an actually and other times they stand-alone. It is certainly proper to adjust a photojournalistic image as long as the image itself is not artificial. It is fine to use cropping and image control but even those have to be used carefully.

For example if you had an image of two people and you cropped one out you would be altering the content of the image. It is fine to use sharpening, but not ok to replace the head on a body with the head of another person. It is journalism not entertainment and therefore the subject of the image should not be altered to change the content.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
