Photo Manipulation in the Media

In today's society we can see that media has affected our lives greatly. Photoshop is used by many people these days, but in media and especially when the photo shopped images are brought out to public, it can be quite big. This especially goes towards images that have been photo shopped badly. Sometimes many people may get fooled from what's real and just another "edited" picture. This particularly happens with celebrities. In before and after pictures of particular celebrities, you can notice changes in their bodies and face structure and even to the details of their skin.

Almost all the time the media wants you to believe what you see on the ads and pictures posted up in magazines and posters. Like how you can get clean and clear skin, or like become as skinny as the image of the girl seen on what ever poster or magazine. It just doesn't really show the truth behind it all and the realism of the pictures is not really there. I think it's still quite rare that even today, it's hard to find natural (non-edited) pictures of people's appearance in those advertisement photos.
