Photographs capture a moment in time. Photos are generally regarded as "factual," as opposed to a drawing or painting, which would be the artist's interpretation.  Photos tend to be trusted more, because they accurately depict what was in front of the camera at the moment the picture was taken. At least, photographs are supposed to be accurate.  How easy is it to edit a photo so that it shows something different than what really happened? Actually, if you don’t know the tools or how to use them, it can be rather complicated.
