Nope.
These two pictures were taken on the same night, same outfit, same day. The difference? The angle and the lightening. I look about 30 pounds heavier in the first one.
I have seen threads about people being upset about pictures of themselves they are tagged on facebook, etc.
Point of this thread, do not let the camera get you down. It doesn't give you the whole entire picture and sometimes it DOES lie.
P.S. I must like this place because the picture on the left makes me want to stab myself in the eyes. I just wanted to share though with everyone that angle and crap does make a difference.
