TTG: On photos that look identical but were made differently

“A photograph that does not qualify as TTG can look identical to a photo that does qualify as TTG.”

For example,

1. a photo from which the depiction of a parked car is deleted

could be made to look identical to

2. a photo of the same scene after that car drove off—

— but #1 is not a record of what the camera saw.

Even though the two photos look identical, only #2 could qualify as TTG. (See also #14 on photos as “records.”)

“It’s not just about how the picture looks anymore.”
