Twisted Beauty Photos By Rodrigo Braga
No really, I did mean twisted.
Before continuing forward, also check out his website for some other amazing work:
http://cargocollective.com/rodrigo_maltchique
Rodrigo Braga has a masterful skill for rendering works that float in the undefined boundaries of reality and imaginary worlds. The prismatic collection is a twisted vision of desire and beauty, amplifying a dark, sinful mood. Braga’s use of naturally beautiful subjects and soft lighting in combination with bizarre manipulations creates a certain uneasiness in the viewer. Beyond the bizarre, Braga uses photographic techniques to create a retro appeal to the otherworldly captures.
Rodrigo Braga is a native of Pouso Alegre, Brazil. Braga studied Visual Communication at the University of Sao Paulo and went on to be come a major artistic director of Fortune 500 companies. The artist is now based in Amsterdam. View more of his visions on his website.

Beauty Pressure
“Talk to your child before the beauty industry does”
So let me talk to you, my children, you are beautiful no matter how you look. But if you’re an ugly person on the inside, then that’s a different story.
Thanks to Hal for the find
The Anti-Photoshop Law of Arizona
The state of Arizona may be the first to put into effect a law that could change the way images are views.
Oddly, I don’t mind this that much if it were to happen.
“This image was photoshopped? It looks so beautiful I must find out who did it!”
At least it doesn’t BAN usage of images that have been photoshopped. It’s like receiving psuedo-credit. After all, most people now know everything has been photoshopped. The message would be annoying on every image at the bottom.
Almost as annoying as huge watermarks.
An Arizona legislator has introduced a bill to make it illegal to run print ads in the state that have been Photoshopped, unless viewers are notified that the image has been altered.
The bill’s sponsor, state representative Katie Hobbs of Phoenix, told the Arizona Republic that she introduced the bill at the urging of the Maricopa County YWCA. The YWCA pushed for the bill out of its concern over the influence of media images on young women. The bill is reportedly modeled after similar laws in Britain.
Arizona House Bill 2739 specifies that “an advertiser shall not use postproduction techniques to alter or enhance printed media advertisements” that are displayed in the state, unless they carry a disclaimer.
The disclaimer proposed by the bill would have to say: “Postproduction techniques were made to alter the appearance in this advertisement. When using this product, similar results may not be achieved.” Under the current language of the bill, the disclaimer would have to be “clearly and legibly stated in the advertisement.”

Fotoshop by Adobe
This is the most hilarious video I’ve ever seen as far as Photoshop goes.
Talk about the real truth beyond beauty products!
This commercial isn’t real, and neither are society’s standards of beauty.
I need to put little stickers next to ads when I go into stores next to products. Want real results? You need Solstice Retouch, not Revlon.
Use healing brush to target blemishes at their source.
The results are so good, they’re almost unreal…istic
The whole thing is full of one liners.
Watch. This. Right. Now.

Fashion Film: Flying Hair
When slowed down, the way her hair moves becomes hypnotic. As though you’re suspended in the reality of whether or not you’re surrounded by water or air.
