Reuters news service image..look at the smoke on the left of the screen..is that cloned or is it my eyes?

Hmm... you're right. That doesn't look quite right. Like it's been cloned up two or three times. Something about the base of the left-hand column of smoke doesn't look quite right, too. Like it doesn't quite fit that scene.

You would think they would do a better job of manipulation. A five-year-old could have done that in about thirty seconds.

"The photographer has denied deliberately attempting to manipulate the image, saying that he was trying to remove dust marks and that he made mistakes due to the bad lighting conditions he was working under," said Moira Whittle, the head of public relations for Reuters.

Update:
Apparently Reuters was able to stop these photos from the same photographer:
They depict the cruel death due to bombing of the rare Middle Eastern Wolf..now extinct as a result of the bombings....oh the horror.
