No it isn't - it's still your interpretation. What Cheney is doing remains the same, whether or not the photograph is cropped. Whether there are other people in the photograph doesn't alter that. Personally I think the whole editorial choice to pick a photograph with Cheney at the carvery to illustrate a story about torture is a pretty clear case of unacceptable editorialisation - the events depicted in the photograph have nothing to do with the actual story. But for me that message is in no way altered by the act of cropping; at the most it just makes the point a little more obvious. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
