Normally, I have the utmost respect for the photographers who go to great lengths to get the best shot. For this, though, I have the utmost respect for the subject, tied to an object underwater with no tank while the photographer gets his shot. That's just incredible. I mean, the photographer is great, but it takes a helluva lot o' guts to pose for this sort of shoot.

Well, photography implies realism, and has been used as a tool to document reality, at least before advanced editing was invented. Much more so than fictional films and paintings, which utilize imagination

Well the title is slightly misleading. It implies deception on a large scale which isn't so. Camera is not a magical, truth seeing device. It's a tool, just like a pen. It shows what the creator wanted us to see. Nothing less, nothing more.

No. 7 it's incorrect. The way the M&M's appear on the drops are by colors, red, yellow, green, blue, etc. but on the "real picture" the M&M's are all mixed up.
