#3 “Photography deals exquisitely with appearances, but nothing is what it appears to be.”~Duane Michals. Write a brief reaction to this quote. Is this quote applicable to your experience with photography? What does it mean to you? Do you agree with the idea presented or disagree?

Because I am an Apparel & Textile major and am familiar with fashion photography I tend to agree with this statement. When you see a model in a magazine with perfect hair, perfect fitting clothes, perfect everything...it's all an illusion. They have had a team of people working on them to make them look that way. Their clothes are all pinned in the back so they appear to fit perfectly. Their hair looks so amazing because it has just been let out of curlers, she hasn't been allowed to move and their is a wind machine blowing on her. So yes, the perfection we see is not what it appears.
