not mine .. just saw it today in www.rotten.com
would have been a great entry to copy and do for the challenge.


or would you all have given it crap marks .. i think it is clever, funny, and very well done. And to find a subject with a tan and no lines couldn't have been easy. ;)

Are you serious? Never heard of fake tans? Or professional soft porn models who use tanning beds?

I think this could be a much nicer photo if it wasn't shot in such a tacky way. Her face is obscured by the milk jug, making her pubic region the entire subject of the photo. It's very objectifying, in the same sense as The Rape by surrealist painter Rene Magritte.

Thematically it's not much different from Setzler's "Forbidden Fruit" photo, but the execution of it is infinitely less interesting. No wonder it's on rotten.com!

ok obviously heard of models, the point i was making was .. this was taken professionally ... i was wondering if anyone had seen it in any campaigns for milk anywhere.
technically, yes you can say obsurring her face is a bad thing .. but it is about the cereal and milk really isn't who cares about the face. you don't look at the mantle piece when your eating your cereal (not sure thats the right saying ;)) do ya.

anyway .. i just wanted to know if anyone had actually seen this in the real world of marketing anywere. Although it seems i forgot to ask that question .. doh, i knew it was on my mind.
