Photo Retouching .. again!


Not so long ago we wrote a piece about the 'pits and falls' of photo manipulation. Ultimately we're up for it as it's part of the game these days but there also has to be a limit to what extent photographs are 'fixed'. With magazines and newspapers being the leading force in this practice we obviously have to watch how they let things unfold - the photoshop police I suppose!

When I say the word fix in relation to photo manipulation I honestly mean that some images can and should, in places, be improved, combined, developed and even stylised! However the above few pics (from Victorias Secrets catalogue c/o yahoo :) prove that it might have just overstepped the mark! ... Idiot photoshopper ;)
