Press photography are photo that are taken by
photojournalists, it is used in newspapers, magazines. A press photographer’s
main objective is to capture an image that will be able to convey and tell a
story as best as it can.
Art photography is an image captured in the creative views
of the photographer. Art photography give photographers the freedom to capture
a unique photo that portrays there idea and creativity.
Even though art
photography and Press photography have many differences in there use they do
share some similarities. Both art and press
photography are known to be art that tells a story. Whether it is true or use
of imagination. Also they both take time and detail to capture the perfect
photo.
1968, Eddie Adams
Is it ethical and acceptable to alter art photographs?
Why? Why not?
I believe that it is ethical and acceptable to alter art
photographs because it give photographers more opportunity to display their
images it the way they want. Giving them more way to be creative and make
images unique. It gives them way to show viewers that photos don’t only have to
be taken just throw the lens, but can be changes throw many ways and can be as
creative as the photographer imagines it.

Is it ethical and acceptable to alter press photographs?
Why? Why not?
I believe that it is not ethical or acceptable
to alter press photographs. Press photographs are uses to portray fact therefore
any alternation will give viewers false view of the image and will not be a
true image of the facts happening around us. Enhancing the quality of a press
photograph is acceptable, but when moving or deleting components of the image it
gives a false view of reality.
