It is easily possible to tell lies with totally un retouched photos and PhotoShopping an image can at times bring out the truth. We praise images from lenses that produce 3D effect. This is obviously a deception unless you are looking at a hologram - and how's that for deception. I manipulate my images. Some times to better tell the truth. Sometimes to better show what I want. Very seldom but occasionally to deceive. Powell
