Photoshopping Models

Chapter 11 of The New Media Writer discusses the different levels of editing and includes the editing decisions of static media such as photographs. Most editing is done to present a more consistent and accurate text for your reader. However, some editing is done to make an image more aesthetic for the viewer, and chapter 11 discussed different filters and techniques.
