i think it would have been neat for there to be a third photo, where she is photoshopped a bit more like the models, to sort of shine light on the fact that even the models are not as flawless as their images.

Less airbrushing/photoshopping was the point. Normal people don't walk around with photoshopped bodies. It's ridiculous that these fashion companies always use young, thin models when only a small percentage of the population is young and thin. When we look at Nathalie Croquet's comparison photos we can see how unrealistic and inaccessible the fashion industry really is. Sorry we can't all be stick thin models. I think Croquet is right in that we all need a more spiritual approach to life (no I didn't say religious). Media bombards us with a standard on what is beautiful that most people can't live up to. Forget the media and look at you inner self and love what we see - age, wrinkles, blemishes, and rolls included. When we love ourselves our beauty shines through, which is why Croquet's photo are so good; her self love and not a warped beauty standard makes her beautiful.

And no photoshop :)

I love your pseudo :D
