"Cover Girl: Before and After Photoshop"

With all the modifications to the photography in professional publications, its no surprise that the public has lost all faith in their journalistic integrity. Jim http://www.TextMatch.me -- Love on the go.

Wow, Photoshop ROCKS! RT www.total-privacy.net.tc

I hope people realize that the "before" photo is heavily photoshopped to make it worse. (and obviously so.)

I know ppl can create miracles with photo editing software, but these two look like fake to me... Hairs are completely different.

I agree with aantix and Lakawak. We are made to believe to perceive cover girls as enviously perfect, on one hand we are easily deceived by the uglier facade showed in the "before Photoshop". The lesson here is: Print aesthetics is incomparable with the imperfect real world, real bodies and real faces we have. Photograph technology has a lot to offer, in presenting an ideal figure for us to admire or envy. Now a simple touch of electronic magic is all we need to appear eternally young and beautiful. Or it can destroy originality and caricature personalities. We must have discerning eye to view things around us and judge them just not as how they appear but judge them according to their societal value. http://kayacamilla.com
