I just stumbled upon a series of photographs by Zed Nelson called Love Me, on our obsession with beauty. It really made me think...

Who knew there were that many items on the body that people rebuilt, shrank, enhanced, whatever. Yikes.
Powerful pictures.

Wow, it is amazing to see what much of our society values and what many are willing to do to feel that value. It is also interesting when it brought to light through this type work and inspires me to do a piece that I have been thinking about doing.

Thank you so much for sharing.

Sad, but so true- I've noticed it more and more. The saddest thing to me is talking with beautiful young teenage girls who are beautiful in every way and hearing them say, "I'm so fat and ugly" and knowing they really do think of themselves that way.
