Photoshop Scandal

To the sincere followers of the great Lenscrafter:

Due to certain work-related travels to the far-east that could not be postponed, the great alchemist of digital photography, Herr Lenscrafter, has been unable to post a new puzzle for us. I'm aware that he has several under preparation and he will soon resume posting.

In the meantime, I have come across certain disturbing occurrences regarding Photoshopping. As educated followers of Lenscrafting, I thought you may have something to say about this. The best comments will be compiled into a new post for easier reading.

Adnan Hajj, a formerly well-respected Lebanese photo-journalist for Reuters, has been caught red-handed by 'shopping enthusiasts like you!

Link to Reuters article about withdrawal of Hajj's work. Check out the pictures inset.

Link for the illiterate from BBC's Newsnight.

Peace,

Sisyphus
