Description It's an obsession. People battle it everyday.

That's my stomach, and my feet, for the scale, I set them back, and foward. None of them are my real weight.

This is an amazing concept! Really I love it! Specially since I stand myself every day in front of the mirror with my shirt up looking if I gained or lost some weight (yeah I only do that, because I'm scared to get on the scales >_<. Very nice done!

A small Idea perhaps for the photo's of the feet on the scales, how about doing those in all different kinds of colour (easily done in photoshop!). I think it would have a nice effect. But then again, it's all your choice.

A lovely shot and a great concept!

Its a good message, though I dont think concern about weight is bad in americas current outlook. Maybe not to the point of anorexia, but people should be cautious for their health. But thats me, and its really a good message that we shouldnt want to be stick thin.

Hm, good concept. People stress about their weight too much.. I dance and so I see it with almost all the girls when they put on costumes, they're in a world of having a perfect body type. When its not perfect it isn't good enough.. which I think is ridiculous. So, great concept. For critique I have to say I don't like the holding of the camera deal, it gives it more of a 'myspace' effect. I think it would have more impact if say, your hands were plastered on your stomach or somewhere on your body, displaying insecurities or whatnot. (Even though you are a great weight. As people have said. ) Maybe next time use a tripod and set it on timer so you have time to move the hands? Otherwise get a model. The feet are good too, I like the idea of the colour one being the underweight one. But that would have had the same impact if it was the other way around and that was the only one in grey-scale. With the grey, did you use desaturation? Maybe you could try the Gradient Map- Black and White. Doesn't sound like much of a difference until you do it, makes it a lot bolder. Anyway, great images, I like it a lot.

Wow, thanks so much for the comment, it's the best critique I've gotten so far.
Yeah, I would have used a tripod, but I was just being silly and took it, and then I thought of a great idea, lol.
I did use desaturation, I know, it makes all my pictures dull.
But anyway, thanks again! <3<3

Well honestly speaking weight is a very important factor. If you get too heavy you will feel how it is to be. Thankfully Im not there yet

Nice cute tummy as many said. And style of presentation.

Unfortunately people do care too much about weight. And don't think I did not notice that the only one in color was the one that was underweight.

Of course. :'D
I think it proves a good point though.
That so many girls, and people in general, are too worried about how thin they need to be.
But after a certain level, it's not beautiful.

MaliceTear [2008-01-23 01:37:53 +0000 UTC]

A nice concept though done before.

Something about the side shot bugs me, I think it is the fact that you can see you are holding the camera. But I am strange like that.

That's a nice, smooth belly. You shouldn't obsess that much.

anyway, about the deviation, I like the concept and the composition of the piece. Nice.
