Digital photo manipulation: the code of ethics of a “Photoshop guru”

Date November 2, 2007

No intent to start a debate about the use of digital manipulation of photographs. I just wanted to link to the recent post of Scott Kelby, the "Photoshop Guy", as he just posted his "Photo Editing Code of Ethics" and I found interesting to juxtapose it with the comments from the master Elliott Erwitt.

"Photoshop is useful in many ways but must NEVER be used for the altering of photographs. My assistants and my agency do whatever Photoshop work for me that may be required as it is too complicated for my brain."- Elliott Erwitt [source]
