Photo manipulation has become so prevalent in media. It has been used heavily to influence our opinions on political parties, figures, celebrities, body image, and so on. Because of this, it has become a bit controversical ethical issue. This is a great problem. Almost all images that are published in magazines have been in the process of photoshop, and this is were the problem begins, when we look at these pictures we think "wow! they're gorgeous." but, are they really? or many they are wearing so much make-up that they cant even smile or maybe their face was airbrushed. You look at their body and wish you were that thin - but the thing is, they aren't even that thin. This is all fake. You are looking at fake things and want to become like that, you try and try and try and this may lead to many things such as eating disorters and such, but you never get the way that these models are for the reason that they can't even be that way, they aren't real. Photo Manipulation is a big problem, is influences the readers to be a certain way that doesn't even exist. Here are some example of Photo manipulation photos:

If you notice, this model has been photoshopped to seem perfect, but really, she isn't. Her leg was fixed so no cellulite was shown, in the after picture her leg looks amazing, no bumps and a perfect skin colour. Her waist was also photoshoped to seem way smaller, and so was her arm. Her face was made softer, smoother and lighter all this making her seem gorgeous. Make up also play a big role in completely changing people, like such:

Thats funny. They dont even look like their self.
Its rare when you see natural pictures, girls with no make up on, their natural hair, their natural body, its differen't you stare at it for a while, and you say wow, they're beautiful and th
eyre not even photoshopped or wearing make up. This should be the type of photographs that we should be seeing, something to give us examples that we shouldn't be like those photoshoped girls, we should be natural, we shouldn't follow a certain trend. Here are pictures of Natural looking girls that we should sometimes think of following:
