Toldeo Blade photo altered

The National Press Photographers Association has a story on a photo that was digitally altered in the Toledo Blade last week. Several other photographers were standing in the same position making the same image, all of which were published in various newspapers. According to the article, the photographer altered the photo for his personal files and accidentally sent it to the paper for publication. When first contacted by the NPPA’s News Photographer magazine, he claimed he didn’t know what had happened.

Update: Another story on Photo District News about the doctored photo.
