Now that we are speaking about "looking away" and "do's & don'ts". Lets get ethical: Should photographers make a declaration when having manipulated (I mean: worked hard in Photoshop) a picture?
My opinion is that like a lot of ethical questions it depends on the intended use.
I would expect that an image used in a newspaper or magazine to report a newsworthy event should have a disclaimer. I would not expect one for an ad in those same publications. Nor would I expect one from an entertainment article such as SI's swimsuit edition.
