Archived from groups: rec>photo>digital (more info?)

Can someone point to or send me an untouched photo that I can use in a
retouching class at my school?? I don't want to use any of the local
student's photos!! Who wants someone you know zooming in on every
pore in your face??

I'd like one with some obvious teenage complexion problems, ideally
also a bit underexposed or whatever.. I want the class to work on
the same photo, learning simple clone/paste blends, dodging eyes a bit
etc...

I'll trade you one or two of my anonymous-to-you images for a couple
of yours..

I'd LIKE high-res of 2000 or so...

Oh, I have about equally black and white skinned kids, each with their
own photographic challenges. Actually I have about 4 colors of white
and 25 colors of black. It's been an education... So, one of 'each'
for retouching class??

Thanks for considering this...

You know how clutched teenagers are about their looks!

Why not take your own?

You know exactly what your wants and needs are.

I do NOT want someone local who will be recognized and embarrassed as
we zoom in on
the imperfections in their face... I want an unknown (in North Africa)
face...

Hire a model; that's exactly what they are for.

THIS IS A SIG LINE; NOT TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY!

The View on Disney-owned ABC dropped Rosie
O'Donnell, even after she agreed to stop
talking about George Bush. The president
has no leverage over ABC. Disney is not a
defense contractor, unless you count the
war rationales we buy from Fantasyland.

You may have some luck searching on Google for free and paid royalty-free
stock photo sites. Never tried it, but is worth a shot.
