Even beautiful people are not perfect

I’m beginning to think about digital photography, one of my art classes which start next week. In synch with these thoughts comes a post on a web designer’s list pointing to this site which shows how photos are retouched to “perfect”the beautiful people. Click on the title of this post or the link in the previous sentence, then click on “Portfolio”. At the Portfolio page, click any thumbnail and then compare the images with your cursor in the “hover” and “not-hover” positions. Amazing.

  1. I knew they did lots of re-touching, but this is really amazing to see… I love that they add hips to some of these women 🙂 Thanks for sharing this, Beth.

  2. I just wish this were illegal. It soooo erodes the self esteeme of young people who don’t get to see the before. Thanks for the great post.
