Hi there,

I'm writing an article on photo legitimacy from a post processing angle and I'm looking for some input, my question is how far is too far in regards to photo manipulation?

I have posed this question to the "retouching" forum as well however as a m4/3 shooter, I am also interested in your opinions, not to mention that this forum is considerably more active than that forum so I'm looking for a well rounded response.

Please feel free to post a response here or private message me, I will give proper recognition to the poster unless you'd prefer to remain anonymous.

Thanks for your help,

Mitch

Legitimate is a legal term with specific meanings. In that regard, using the word to define the result of altering a photograph would make that altered photograph illegitimate. Intent and purpose of such alteration is a very different subject.
