Part 2: Picture

this photo spoke out to me because it shows how exposed our youth has been in america. In this image it has a young man around probably 10-12 years old sitting at a table looking at a gun magazine. In addition it seems to break the gun down and give a simple example how the gun is used with a vivid pictures of the gun sliced in half exposing the bullets in the magazine and chamber. the point of view is coming from someone else's view in the room, immediately after this it was probably dinner and which sets the time for around 4-6 and since the boy is wearing over-alls its probably fall.

Part 1: Questions
1. What type of brush must be used when layer masking and clone stamping?
                     -a soft edge
2. What key on the keyboard is pressed to select an area to be cloned when using the Clone Stamp tool?
                     -option
3. Explain the difference between making a selection with the Lasso tool and creating a Path with the Pen tool.
                      - the lasso tool you can create your own shapes opposed to the Pen tool which makes exact shapes
4. What is the benefit of using a Layer Mask as opposed to using an Eraser?
                      - an layer mask is working in a non destructive way because one can always bring back the image.

5. What is "non-destructive" editing and why is it an important approach for a photographer using Photoshop? 
                     - non-destructive editing means that you are working in a way that never ruins the original copy of the image, and everything can be restored to its original form.

Ethics of Photoshop

1. What ethical considerations must be made by someone using Photoshop to retouch a portrait photograph? 
        - An ethical consideration that should be taken every time is working with layers. This is a non destructive way because you are not working directly on the picture, so you can change anything at any point in time.
2. Give an example of a positive use of photo retouching and a negative use of photo retouching.
      - a positive example is fixing blemishes such as pimples scars, or red marks. a negative way would be changing how a person looks such as making someone look skinnier or different color hair or skin tone.
3. Has learning retouching processes caused you to look at advertisements, magazine images and other published photos of celebrities and models differently? In what ways?
     - yes it definitely has. i know that there is no possible way someone could look perfect. the models that are in those ads maybe are not even a fraction of how they look in the ads, with all the work in the process anyone can look incredibly beautiful.
