Creative Gallery

For my creative project, I'm planning to do a practical demonstration of some of the ethical and unethical uses of photo editing software.

Some examples of ethical modifications that I'll apply are:

--minor cosmetic alterations for personal or professional use
--removing obtrusive objects from photos (only if they aren't important to the meaning of the photo)
--photo enhancements like improving lighting, contrast, etc.

Some examples of unethical modifications that I'll apply are:

--major cosmetic alterations for professional use, like extreme thinning of models
--removing or heavily altering photo components that are important to the photo's meaning
--photo enhancements that alter the meaning of the photo's situation

I'll probably ask my friends to donate pictures of themselves or of anything that can be modified.
