Photo editing is something that everyone does to some extent. For me and my business, MK Morphs, the most we ever do to our photos is crop and add our logo to the corner of the photos. It is very frustrating for those of us who are honest and don't edit our photos to enhance the appearance of our animals. I constantly see photos that are way over enhanced getting so much attention. It is extra annoying when you see photos of the same animals, in the same photo set, looking completely different! Here is an example. This breeder has a habit of getting carried away when hitting the enhance button.
This is an example of what these animals normally look like. Notice how the striping is orange.
The animal on the left is an animal from the group above. This is the enhanced photo. Notice how the stripe on the back now looks bright yellow instead of orange.
The thing is, it isn't even a subtle difference. You can tell that he is editing these photos to make them look better than they really do. He is making it look like these are the quality of the animals that buyers will receive, but they will be very shocked and disappointed at the difference when they see them in person.
