Project #1

Parker Thomas/ Caption: Below is a photo of the supermodel Kate Moss taken by the photographer Chuck Close. This black and white photo is a traditional daguerrotype which captures each authentic "flaw" of the subject and is not re-touched through darkroom processes or computers. The difference between seeing a natural Moss and the commonly re-touched Moss is shocking and comments a lot on how dependent our society is on photo re-touching.
