Re: The ethics of "Photoshopping" Real Estate Listings.
said by Mauricio9  :If you can't get a clearer view without the power lines by walking around or changing lenses, then the clearer view does not exist. Part of the value of the property is determined by how it looks from outside, power lines and all. If after putting on your superwide angle you still can't get a view without the power lines, then it means that they are going to be in your field of view no matter where you stand. How is that any different? Whether you take the photo from a different angle, stand with the wires behind you, or edit the finished photo, you're still consciously trying to deceive people. |

If you can get a shot without the powerlines, that implies that there is a perspective from where the view of the house is unobstructed. If you can't and photoshop them out, you imply there is a perspective from where the view of the house is unobstructed when in reality there isn't. That is very different in my book.
