Bob Gray referred this morning to an incident at National Geographic when a photograph of two pyramids was digitally altered to make them look closer together (see left). Some accounts say that it was to better utilize the magazine's format -- basically, as Gray said, to "make the picture look better." That was in 1982. A magazine policy on photo manipulation followed soon after.
