Alright, who's the idiot in charge of the airbrush? Seriously. I've seen better airbrush skills on the side of coal cars. You're going to airbrush her face, but only her face? How do you explain the shadow snafu on Ms. June 24? It's obvious that the in-house image editing involves some stage where the pictures are sent around in a state of high-loss compression. What is up with these image artificts?
I know, you're wondering why I'm stressing about details like this. Well, I'm a little bit OCD, and a more than a little bit nerdy, and image-editing is a bit of a hobby of mine. So here's this week's geek quota.
But really, whoever you are, permission to use Photoshop revoked. Learn to use an actual (as in zomg-real-wrld) airbrush.
I could talk about the women in these photos, but I really think I'd just be stating the obvious. So it's one of those things where the quote "You look at that picture and the glasses bother you? How about he two sailors in assless chaps? Did you notice them, Bill?" applies pretty well. So on that note, please observe that there are some pretty rockin' pinstripes on Ms. June 30's shoes, there's probably a cheap import car parked behind Ms. June 14 (why hasn't anyone like her walked into the local soda fountain lately?), the picture of Ms. June 26 was probably taken on a slightly raised stage, if not on a tile floor, someone needs to get a better camera that won't royally screw up the photo like June 16, the camera's dynamic response on Ms June 28's black vest is phenomenal, the lighting effects on and behind Ms. July 2 (perfectly out of focus, diffused light sourcing) are great, Ms July 4 (period. Ms. July 4. What words can apply?), please explain the pseudo-bun Ms. July 6 is sporting, and Ms. July 8 is posing with a really awesome Rich bass. Notice all of those details? Good, now you have my permission to go back to just plain staring.
P.S. nice hair highlights on Ms. June 22, Mr. Airbrush-No-Talent. Really, it's good.
