Well.. the manipulations you mention doesn't seem like something bad to me. And it is pretty normal to retouch the photos. No professional photographer would sell unretouched photos. And just one more thing: standard formats for photographs are raw formats. Most people use tools from adobe for jpeg conversion. So, you if you are insurance company for example, you can detect adobe-specific quantisation algorithms, but it does not prove fradulent manipulation. If software like adobe lightroom is involved in the process, it even does light sharpening before export to jpeg (the reason of this is that transfer of jpeg to photographic paper blurs the photo slightly). I wonder what would image manipulation detectors detect in photos with heavy tonality corrections, such as photos from inca's gold exhibition in my gallery: http://www.ufe.cz/~tomasek/gallery/zlato_inku/index.html <http://www.ufe.cz/%7Etomasek/gallery/zlato_inku/index.html> or in photos with split toning: http://www.ufe.cz/~tomasek/gallery/zvire_v_pasti/content/DSC_2822_large.html <http://www.ufe.cz/%7Etomasek/gallery/zvire_v_pasti/content/DSC_2822_large.html> -- Martin Tomasek _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
