What should someone use to label a photograph that has been altered by
merging two or more images into one photograph or by extensive enhancement by
filters and other means?
8. Explain how making photograph portrait “selfies” fulfill or not fulfill the intent of Socrates when he said “An unexamined life is not worth living.A photograph that has been altered should have a cite of the original work or given credit to creator of work.
"An unexamined life is not worth living" means to me that if one doesn't realize the purpose of himself or have no sense of direction then he isn't "living". So by taking a self portrait a person stops to realize his existence and the way he wants to live it. Self portraits being a way the self can see the person he is.
