I retouch but I remove things that are not part of the subject and I do that rarely I will straighten the image and i will dodge and burn but I think it is unnecessary to alter the person or building or product. I can see cleaning up a label that was not like the label you would be more likely to see in the store but to make it look perfect is not acceptable in my opinion as there is no real perfection and anyone who thinks so has a problem with their own self esteem.

But then I do not lie in order to win arguments or present myself in a better light and so I do admit I am not the norm.

Of course if the object of the visual is to be fantasy for instance then it is fine to alter it all you want, that is what fantasy is about. However the law they are making in France is a really good one s they recognize the hypnotic effect of flashing through the pages of a magazine or a ton of magazines and the the same is true for tV and Film but even more so because of the incredible number of images that passes by the viewer's eyes.

Unfortunately the film makers and the TV producers know this and take advantage of it to the point of even making any films and releases them knowing they will loose money at first on them but in the future the viewers will be drawn to them because of the training they have invested in.

And I know this to be true.

I think that leaving the subject as is is the best policy and gives the most natural look.

Just look at the photo I took of Peter Figen, she can definitely make the cover of vogue!

LOL!
