I don't know if any of you have seen Madonna's latest photos, they are plastered all over the internet. She uses a filter on them that makes her look like a teenager. I have noticed some people on facebook do it too. I just wanted to ask why they do this? I'm 46 and do not expect people to think I still look 18. If they met me in person they would know that I don't anyway! I just put a filter on a photo for fun to see what it looked like and I look like an alien!! it's laughable. "Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy? Caught in a landside, No escape from reality"   |

Disappointed at the lack of kitten ears, Marianne Marlow! 🤣 Filters seem like harmless fun, as long as everyone knows they are in use, and why. |

Ha ha, kitten ears? I am not sure I have anything that does that on my phone. Disappointed at the lack of kitten ears, Marianne Marlow! 🤣 Filters seem like harmless fun, as long as everyone knows they are in use, and why. |

What the filter seems to do is to make your skin smooth like an animated character. It's taken my freckles away too. It would need a really extreme filter to make me look 18 🤣🤣🤣 |

Pardon me for laughing Marianne Marlow. I think the filters and "touch ups" on people in ads are false advertisement! If I don't want people to see what I look like, I don't post a picture. |

You can laugh if you want. I find it funny too, which is why I posted it. Make up is okay as that is an enhancement of natural features. But when people use filters it seems to turn them into someone entirely different. Pardon me for laughing Marianne Marlow.

I don’t understand it either.
When I read filters, I thought of those that photographers use which have kind of the same result - make something look like it never did in reality. I’ve seen too many beautiful bird photos, in my mind ruined by the use of filters, giving birds colours that you and I don’t see.
