In your opinion, when is it beneficial, ethical, or appropriate to digitally alter photographic portraits? When do you think it is inappropriate or ethically wrong?
I think that in certain instances, it can be highly beneficial to digitally alter a photographic portrait. The alterations can be a great tool for adjusting undesirable effects in a photo, such as unwanted shadows or an overall bright composition. Used appropriately, it can be a very useful tool to have. Used inappropriately, digital alterations can bring about slander and trick people. Sure, some may be for humor, which can be good. But there is always someone who can take a lighthearted joke too far, and people may get hurt in the process. There can be unethical cases, and there can also good instances for digital revamping in photography.
