Enhancement.

Exercise: Enhancement.

This face is mine and is beyond the help of simple enhancement.  I tried lightening, and I tried darkening I tried selective smoothing and the cloning out of wrinkles and marks but all to no avail.  In the end I gave myself a pair of blue eyes.  I wanted then to look real so I limited the amount of change.  The change hasn't done me any favours in that I think I appear older and meaner.  I certainly look like my long departed grandfather.
I commented on the acceptability of this sort of enhancement in the last entry.  Flattering lighting is one thing, but the enhancing of a face or figure to the extent it is done in advertising is straight forward fraud.
