Can a photograph lie or mislead? it's an interesting subject.
Here is an example, taken on the streets of Glasgow.
I don't usually photograph homeless people, it doesn't feel right to me. But this exchange caught my eye.
It looks like the man is remonstrating with the young woman, but he's not, he was telling her where she could find help and shelter.
It made me realise that care is needed when taking or presenting street photographs.

@stevenlawson Well, yes, all media can be misleading ...

But I disagree. I don't think your photo looks like the man is antagonising the woman. His posture is vaguely threatening but he's loose, not tense. And her expression is not one of fear.

But, yes, photos can mislead, sure.
