 4. Is it ethically acceptable to change a person's appearance like these in a photo? Why or why not?
 - I don't think it is ethically acceptable to change a person's appearance like in the video. I think this because people are saying to love who you are and that you are beautiful but then after they take a picture they completely change what they looked like before and it doesn't even look like the same person after they are done with it.
5. Are there circumstances in which it would be more ethically wrong to do this type of manipulation?
  - Yes, if you were doing a photo shoot of natural beauty and after you take the picture you completely change the person then its not natural beauty anymore. It would also be more wrong if you were taking pictures of babies or children and you added make up and changed the kid.
6. What types of changes are OK, and what aren't?
 - I think some changes that are OK to make would be if you wanted to add a little bit of make up or if you wanted to add more hair to the person, or if you wanted to take away some of the friz in the hair. Some changes that I don't think are OK would be if you made the person skinnier or changed their face or their body.
7. Explain what you think the differences are between fashion photography and photojournalism.
 - In fashion photography you are taking more formal pictures and you are changing their appearance in Photoshop. In photojournalism you are taking more pictures of people doing a sport or actually doing something rather than them posing. Also in photojournalism you don't change their appearance as much as in fashion photography.
8. What relationship does each type of photography have to reality, and how does this affect the ethical practice of each?
 - I think photography compared to reality is completely different. I think this because in photography you are changing the person to make them look perfect and fake. This changes the ethical practice of each because now people are trying to make themselves look perfect and they are trying to look like the people in magazines and on billboards.
9. Why do you think I am showing you these three videos?
 - I think you showed us these three videos to show us what happens in photography and how much the people in photo go through. I also think you showed us this so that we can see the process of fashion photography.
10. Why are none of these videos about guys???
 - I think none of these videos are about guys because their are more beauty products for girls than there are for guys and there are more advertisements for girls than for the guys.
