Alexandra Guarnaschelli: Chopped

Posted on 13 November by bryce

Telekinesis is an oft overlooked kitchen technique.

Photoshop Disasters

If she was preparing a corn-based dish, you could expect a clever Children of the Corn reference. Instead, you get to enjoy Guarnaschelli’s glazed expression as she scoops pecans with her mind. Not pictured: kitchen appliances and cutlery singing and dancing as they prepare a dish ala Beauty and the Beast.

Thanks Carlen. The original was found within the November edition of the Food Network magazine.

Kohl’s: Chic proportions

Department stores like Kohl can offer savings through their bulk orders and clever tricks like only using two dimensions. I hope we’re all aware of the irony that “Design Nation” is bolded here.

Thanks Elaine and Matthew. The original came from a direct mail circular from Kohl’s department store. Any idea why Kohl’s might have done this?

Posted on 13 November by bev

This week on Photoshop Disasters we featured not just one, but two disasters involving professional basketball players.  We also had a good debate over whether Jackie Chan has had his arm detached for advertising purposes.  Then we spent some time floating just above our air mattress while enjoying a good book.  You know, the usual.

On to the links!

  • Think you know how to use Photoshop?  Check out what this artist can do (video). [BuzzFeed]
  • 15 images that look Photoshopped, but are totally real. [MSN]

  • Celebs Before and After Photoshop. [BuzzFeed]
  • 25 Incredible Photos from History.  Serious goosebumps.  [Ned Hardy]
  • Can Photoshop be beaten?  New technology says yes.  [The Huffington Post]
