Photoshop or Not
Today the article I am writing about is called Photoshop or Not. This article talks about how people can be cut into different sizes using the computer. For example, if the person is fat and taking a picture for the cover, if she would like or not , she can be slimmer than her usual self or be slim like a model. The photographs of celebrities and models in fashion advertisements and magazines are croped and polished down to it is that right body. Instead of using some cream or something to take away the pimple, Adobe's Photoshop software can take care of that instantly. Or it can be drastic, shedding 10 or 20 pounds, adding a few inches in height and erasing all wrinkles and blemishes, done using Adobe's Photoshop software, the photo retouchers magic wand. Fixing all these body human parts, you might end up up with Barbie. These pictures are of highly idealized and digitally edited images in advertising and fashion magazines. What I think about this situation is that it is a good thing. If a person is fat and she is taking a picture for a cover, they can take the fat off that person and make them skinny and look better. I think people should show if they altered the photo because if they don't the photo will be fake. People will wonder how the celebrities got so thin in a quick period of time.
