Retouched photos: before and after

Click a photo to enlarge, then click the enlargement to switch back and forth between “before” and “after” — and yes, it’s quite obvious which is which. :)

    This has long been a favorite site of mine. I first found it a few years back, when I was first having to do the professional’s job of retouching and was looking for a few guides online. It’s really amazing. Once you’ve seen what a talented retoucher can achieve, it’s impossible to look at photographs the same way anymore.

    One of many reasons I love Flickr. 99.9% of the photos there are not retouched at all; half of them are barely labeled. Of course, the camera always does its own editing, but there’s something to be said for the only editor’s hand being a mechanized one.

    I edit more than 90% of the photos I put on flickr. Although the edits are usually simple color/exposure adjustments, sometimes’ it’s more: removing a blemish or whitening teeth, etc.
