    I have doubts it’s a “shot” based on the vibrant comp of the individual and their reaction to what’s in their proximity. But most noteably, the image isn’t 8:10 as the majority of cameras shoot. But it could be all real and, shit on a blad or something, and in that case it’s a stunning example of photojournalism.

    Unfortunately, these are the times we live in now. Editting, photomanip, and now AI are all just too easy

      This is a well-attested photo by a photographer at a reliable news org. Don’t denigrate this real person’s work by not giving it the courtesy of scrolling down to the comment that provides the source before assuming it to be AI.

        Gaslighting doesn’t work well on the internet. You shouldn’t do it to people anywhere anyway.

        At least everything I remember writing and…looks at it…yep, still is there, didn’t have a conclusion, let alone one on an assumption of AI. It’s just an expression of “doubts” which I even included how they could he wrong.

        And while you do that courtesy scrolling, pay attention to timestamps.

          Also, I struggle to understand how anything I said (people are doing important work, some of them are really good at their jobs, they deserve the courtesy of double checking before the assumption of AI) could be construed as gaslighting. For one thing, it’s all true.

      ???

      Many other formats exist and are extremely common (3:2, 1:1, 4:3…)

      And more importantly, cropping is a thing.
