I would just give up right now. Don't worry, Bren, you are gorgeous. while we are on the topic of seeing photos of oneself and being shocked, I saw a picture of myself from behind...a view I never see in the mirror... and I was horrified by my back fat. great. one more thing to worry about. put it on the list.milanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14944678666486959427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8543859506186914619.post-61201491603009405662009-01-09T19:44:00.000-08:002009-01-09T19:44:00.000-08:00How about a pedicure and some Hideaway pizza?

Compression occurs when a 3D object is depicted in a flat 2 dimensional manner. Lighting is used to shade some areas and highlight others. If the key light is on the wider part of a face or body, or the lighting is unbalanced and no compensation is made in the way of contouring or shading the subject, it can indeed look heavier. Models don't usually have this problem because there are people on set who are paid to make sure the makeup, lighting and camera angles are perfect. News anchors frequently do have this problem because the lighting and camera angles are less forgiving and the focus is not on making the anchor look flawless as it is with models. <BR/><BR/>My belief that a person can look heavier in a picture or video than they actually look has absolutely nothing to do with me being in denial about how heavy I am, then having the proof put in my face in photo form. <BR/><BR/>That's all I have to say about that.Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10974235086402443606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8543859506186914619.post-83599118104098006982009-01-09T09:40:00.000-08:002009-01-09T09:40:00.000-08:00So...now I am really confused!...LOL I just hope I...So...now I am really confused!...LOL I just hope I look a better than what I see in mirror!!!Kennedyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07684910437408457681noreply@blogger.com
