Question

Where do we draw the line between creativity and deception? When is it OK to digitally manipulate images?

Answer 1

when you are manipulating the pictures for art and creativity purposes and not for changing your own or others appearance.

Answer 2

The spread of the use of digital editing raises several ethical questions, especially when used in journalism.

Step-by-step explanation:

Digitally edited images can be a form of art and a channel for creative self-expression. However, retouching a photo is a digital manipulation that can be perceived as deceptive or dishonest.

Furthermore, the use of digital retouching in advertising raises questions about the responsibility advertisers have over the retouched images that build ideas that may be prejudicial to gender equality and the inclusion of minority groups.
