I ran across an interesting post that addresses an issue Mr. Mark has brought up a couple of times in class. In terms of photo documentary, what is real and what isn't? Clearly there are shades of gray in making decisions about these type of images. In this case, the photos were taken in Afghanistan using an iPhone and applying a number of effects to images as they were taken.

Thank you Joe!! A very interesting article and it just reiterates the point that change is always with us....as well as classic truths like composition, the frame, the moment, metaphors, on and on.
