is the taking of one or more photos and with image editing tech-niques to create an illusion or deception (In contrast to mere en-hancement or correct-ion), through analog or digital means.
Using digital photos and modern software makes a huge differ-ence from doing it the old analog way.
The photos to the right are but a few examples of what can be done.
In the set with the girls, each original pic-ture had issues. We first chose the best photo, then replaced the girl with the itch. Voila...a photograph that everyone looks great in.
The center picture was a matter of cutting out the car and giving it a new background and a title. They then used this for their blog and album cover.
At the bottom is a collection of three photos. Some of the images were reversed and adjustments in contrast and color balance made. Ad-ditionally, there was a lot of clean up to com-plete this oceanic scene.
