This was taken by a chemical film camera. Photoshop wasn't created until 1988.
Current photos have to be assembled from many close-range photos taken at low orbital altitude. (Like a fly taking pictures of your automobile at a distance of an inch.) A camera needs to be at many multiples of the Earth's diameter distant in order to view an entire hemisphere completely.
Oh, but this is "Chandler15" ! I hadn't noticed. The notorious know-nothing, who spouts certainty when he is totally ignorant. HE is the one who should be questioned, before you question anyone else.
Of course we have a photo of the entire Earth in a single frame. Here is one from Apollo 17 in 1972. https://planetfacts.org/apollo-17-last-manned-spaceflight-to-the-moon/
