Response to point, shoot, retouch and lable.
In my opinion such a law would reveal the fakery involved in most advertising images to the public, therefore destroying not all photographic art but photographs of most models used in magazines. Most of these photographs are created or taken to make the viewer want to be like or have the same things as the subject. If there was a label on every retouched photo the public would be aware that the person in the photo was digitally altered. On the other hand many photographs are harmlessly retouched, just for emotional effect. I think what would make this law even better would be to state that you must label when you retouch a humans body, not the background or any surrounding objects.
I think that the retoucher, photographer,and the magazine editor are all the author of the photo. . The model is just a character in the picture. They both should be given credit for the art they created.

Question One: The three types edits that we have learned are Exposure (Levels, Curves.), Color (Color balance, Photo filter.), and vignetting. Levels and curves are used first to change how dark or light you image is. Your image should not be to dark or to light or to over and under exposed. Color balance and photo filter are used next to balance out the colors in the picture. If you used the wrong white balance and you picture is to blue, you can add orange to even the color out. Last we use vignetting to give the picture an old, vintage feel.
