What we see isn't always the truth...

[Aaralyn]

Doing a bit of looking at photos and retouching and thought this would be a good site to show you guys. As you see here what we see in advertisement isn't always the reality. I think one of the scariest is the 4th row down 4th image over (in the BRIGHT pink). Lots of eye candy for the guys (and the gals too), but it's not all as nice as it seems at first glance. Mouse over to see the "before" shot.

I wish I could take credit for that Photoshop work. This is a guy that retouches MANY celebs images. Before he redid his site he had some amazing before/after pictures of Halle Berry, Billy Bob Thornton, some Supermodels (who while still beautiful are NOT as perfect as the magazine make them out to be), and MANY more celebs. I can only HOPE to be this good one day and get $140/hr for my Photoshop skills. However, some of those before pictures I could beat, but that wouldn't be hard. Poor lighting, poor exposure and poor white balance in so many of them. Wow and those are the basics.
