Here's another one, from
Powerline blog:
The Reuters caption reads: "Journalists are shown by a Hizbollah guerrilla group the damage caused by Israeli attacks on a Hizbollah stronghold in southern Beirut, July 24 2006. (Adnan Hajj/Reuters)"
Below is the Hajj photo dated August 5:

Why would they want to add these flare trails?
To make it look like the IAF is afraid of SAMs. As far as I know, Hezbollah has no SAMs.
Maybe they want to make someone think that Hezbollah has SAMs?
These are flares,the bombs are forward of the flares in the photo.
Maybe the POS who altered the photos thought they were bombs and was trying to make it look like indescriminate bombing?
These guys are sickos.

The photo is from the rocket attacks from hezzbola - the aftermath. Very sad.

Photographer who sent altered image is same Reuters photographer behind many of images from Qana, which have also been subject of suspicions for being staged. At this to the uncanny ability to get an instant 16 ft full color banner of Condi Rice to use in the propaganda war about Qana (discussed by Freepers elsewhere) and one begins to wonder just how much *truth* is involved in anything going on over there.

Oh, come on now, there were reflections from the rocket's red glare of launches into Israel on his monitor, making it very difficult for him to see the smoke plume he accidentally replicated about 30 times...(do I need a sarcasm tag here?)

Was it Reuters that published that other famous doctored photo of the war? It was a combination of two photographs of an American soldier trying to get someone to sit down and an Iraqi appearing to be pleading with him.

I have seen live video feeds of Israeli fighters dropping chaff and flares.
While Hez/Hizbollah may not have SAMs (I think they do), they do have SAM radars, and the pilots are playing it safe.
Before Somalia, who would have thought an RPG would bring down a Blackhawk?
As low as some of those fighters are flying, I'd be willing to bet some Hezzie punk has tried to launch an anti-tank missile at a fighter, and many of those are heat-seeking.
I believe you are correct that the Hezzies would like to protray the IDF as afraid.

looking at the unaltered photo, I am somewhat surprised he bothered to alter it. There is plenty of dark smoke, if that is what he wanted. Look at the contrast in the before and after -- especially the buildings. Looks to me like he tried to crank up the contrast to make the smoke look darker. He wasn't happy with that and then proceeded to clone the smoke and left the contrast too high.
