    AP Photographer Fired for Photoshop Blunder

    Original story. As everyone here knows, I typically favor editing. I think photo tweaks are part of the artistry of photography. Photojournalism is the exception to this rule. I agree with the AP's disciplinary action on this. Journalistic photos should not be edited in a way that alters...

    Google+ owns your pictures

It's pretty cool, but it's going to be a tough job uprooting 500 million Facebook users. Anyway, here's a little snippet from the Google+ terms...
