Photograph

I chose the photograph that depicted a British soldier telling Iraqi citizens to take cover. The picture originated from two different photos taken during the invasion of Iraq. The photo combined two completley different photos, one of a British soldier in the field, and the other of Iraqi citizens taking cover. The photos were combined because the photographer said that the photo did not have proper composition and therefore replaced the image of city streets with the Iraqi citizens. The photograph is harmful because it does not properly depict a true event. It is a false representation of a certain event. The photograph is a lie to anyone who views it.
