Painting image

altured images.

The photo realistic alterationOne or more photos are altered, but the alterations look as though they are part of the original image. These images are often so well done that they would be unethical distortions of the truth if they weren't clearly labeled as illustrations.







The photo made into artOne or more photos are heavily altered so they don't look like photos anymore. They may look like a painting or a drawing, or a computer generated image.

Cover History

There are four MAIN different types if magazine covers that had there Era and all that jazz.
Like the first, "Early Magazine Covers" mostly they were a title and a drawing, they were very popularback in the 1940 and earlier.
Next, "Poster Magazine Covers" this cover was popular in the 1950s- mid 1960s. it is basically a photo with a title.
Then there's "Pictures Married to Type Magazine Covers" which, is a long name, but it's self explantory, by saying it is a magazine with a photo and words that go with the photo and a title.
Last there's the word junky or "Forest of words magazine covers" this it a magazine that has waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to many "headlines on the front about stories inside the magazine which really have notheing to do with th cover picture behind them. and there's a title.

This Photo to me is a Great Portrait Image because if I didn't know any better, I'd think this was a painting the way the shadows are definite and the Highlights and clouds are almost the same shade of Various amounts of color, That sure is a techneque that Photographers find rediculous, but I as an artist think it's briliant.

Absolute Absolutest

As a photojournalist, your ethics should always be absolute. Say if you have a picture that you really love, it has great emotion, great energy, but there's a tree that merges with the top of the main subject's head you should either post and print it the way it is, or don't print it at all.

A photo can capture truth, but to a very limited group, the people who know the whole, true, story of and about the photo. If someone takes a picture of a Zebra, but didn't really care to count the stripes while they're actually seeing all sides, how in the world will he know the right number if he only sees one side? Then, if that photo is published, the readers will be lied to in hearing that this Zebra has only the seen amount of stripes times two for the other side. What if that Zebra had one more hidden stripe? That is not the truth.

It's wrong to lie, including "keeping the whole truth to yourself." If a image is altured then that's just the same. If news papers intend to let people "know the true" they better speak the truth.
