no wonder...

No wonder we have such a distorted perception of what is beautiful...

1. Go to http://www.iwanexstudio.com/.
2. Click on portfolio.
3. Pick a celebrity picture from the thumbnails.
4. Mouse over to see what the the photo looked like when it was taken. Mouse out to see what the final photoshoped version (that was printed in a magazine) looked like.
5. Click on the picture to make it go away & pick another one.
6. Repeat until fully disgusted with print media and how it distorts our perceptions.

Feel free to pass it on.

I also found it kind of crappy to remove freckles from people's faces, whiting them out until they look sculpted.. but I find freckles sexy.

Nevermind the gross rearranging of flesh after the fact.. *shudders*

Real photos are awesome. Retouching sucks.
