Altered Images - Photo Ethics

What is ethical when taking pictures? How much can we alter a picture and still call it true photography?

In the Bronx Documentary Show, Altered Images, photographs have "violated the principle that Documentary Photos should be accurate and honest representations of the scene before the photographer's camera."

Go to the website:

http://www.alteredimagesbdc.org

Read the "About" section and look at the photographs...all have been faked, posed, or manipulated. Is this right or wrong?

In a brief paragraph for each picture., explain why the pictures are not 'Ethical".
