Which genres require more photo retouching?
Answer: Creative Genre
Why do you think this is?
Answer: Retouching of image would be required for Creative Genre to create a near perfect look of the subject. This does not need to be realty. Correcting the colour or defects of the photo taken. Creative Genre also allows for fantasy and creativity bringing new ideas to the image.
"Creative genres tend to allow an element of fantasy and so are more liberal in terms of photographic ethics, allowing significant retouching and blending of images and so on. Just because the genre is listed here does not mean that we condone each one. Pornography and propaganda, for instance, we would consider to be exploitative and unethical. Be mindful that this is not an exhaustive list. Are there any other genres of photography that you think should fit in here?"
