"At least we have our health," said by one of my professors. I was not having a great day and this sarcastic comeback to all my complaints put a smile on my face.

Ethics of digital manipulation response
This article was a very easy read. The main points of this I agreed with and found out a lot of new information about digital manipulation. It is true that currently in society images are always manipulated and never display a complete and truthful representation of the subject that was photographed. Although I knew this was a common occurrence in today's society I didn't realize that photo manipulation dated that far back in history. This provoked me to do more research on the history of photo manipulation.
Another point I want to bring up about the article is that I do believe that not all manipulated images are considered art. In the article, a statement is said about how people expect and want fictional images in movies but get angry when we view fake or altered images in news or business advertisements. I completely agree with this statement. When we as citizens believe something to be true then find out it is completely false we get scared and enraged because the media has fooled us; however, when we go into a scary movie for example, we know images are altered and what we are viewing is fiction, thus we are less scared about the images we are viewing.
This quote wraps up nicely his main point about when an alteration of a image becomes a problem.
"It only becomes a problem, and a question of ethics, when the artist or photographer lies about his motivations, methods, and conclusions, and presents images with the purpose to intentionally deceive."

"They aren't just going to sniff your juice" said by a friend named Alex. The word sniff used in this context made me laugh. The background is vibrant just like Alex's personality.
