Oops...

I didn't mean to sign out of gmail while we were talking D: I can't sign back in because its my mom's account! Shes busy at the moment.... Sorry...

I want to correct myself on the crying baby post. My mom told (Or rather, reminded) me that what they did was: they'd give the kid a lollypop or some candy, then before the kid ate it they would take it away from them, and take a photo while the kid cried. You can see it here:


Just so you don't think Jill is mean photographer :P
Making kids cry is often easy.

Jill Greenberg.

There's this photographer named Jill Greenberg who does some really cute photos of animals. She's so great I decided to make this whole post about her photography.
She has a really cool site called The Manipulator so please have a look at it. These are some of her monkey pictures:

They are actually real monkeys. She's brilliant if you ask me.

She also did some work with crying children, which a lot of people found Cruel.

Parents would take their kids to her studio and they would tell the kids that their parents had left them. Then they'd take photos of the kid crying. After that their parents would come back in and the kid would get a cookie or some candy.
I personally don't think that is that mean. I find this worse:

It's suppose to be art.
They put some jellyfish DNA in her so she'd glow. Which I find a LOT worse then making a kid cry.

Anyway, I got to get on with neopets stuff as usual. I'll post again soon :D
