Within two
hours of offering $10,000 for unretouched images from Annie Leibovitz's
photography session with the HBO star, we received six allegedly
unaltered images. As expected, they're great — Lena looks fantastic.
Aside from the obvious lighting tweaks that any publication would make,
the unretouched images are pretty perfect. Which makes some of the
adjustments — slightly narrowing a jaw or raising a waistline — seem
that much more unnecessary. Why bother? These slight tweaks, the "you
look great, but you'd look just a little more great if..." stuff is insidious.
But this is what Vogue does,
and it's interesting to see what Leibovitz and editor-in-chief Anna
Wintour felt that they needed to "fix" before pictures of Lena could be
presented to readers.
