They don't, because they are obvious. I used both scenarios, "undisclosed or non-obvious," but you, being your old hairsplitting self, are splitting my duo and cherry-picking one to suit your misguided examples.
To return to the OP situation, the issue at hand is the photographer's explanation that was clearly stating it was a lucky shot, being in the right place at the right time and pressing the shutter with a Cartier-Bresson's sense for the decisive moment. In other words, a simple LIE.
Since it was undisclosed and non-obvious, it is the antithesis of photography.
But hey, feel free to surf the net in search of another exception that proves the rule.
