How exactly does this happen? Is the fauxtog blind? Or did the customer order up a crappy spot-color job.

The fauxtog did a superb job of finding the most flattering angle for this woman. Well done! What? Armpits aren’t attractive?

I hope this little guy has a designated driver. I sure wish he’d had a designated photographer.

   Ok, I think the photographer was trying to just colorize that one opening in the fence plus the little girl’s arm extending out. I’m not sure *why* one would attempt this, but I think that’s what s/he was going for here.

     I think you’re giving this person too much credit. This is a crappy job regardless of intent.

   This seems to be an attempt to be clever. An attempt. Alas that it’s not effective.

   The terrible hodgepodge of techniques aside, awesome hoodie Mom; you look really proud to be with your kids in that moment. These clients are worse than their photographers most of the time. So sad.

   LOL I’m surprised that they took the time to colour her whole arm instead of just the top part since it seems they only wanted to spot colour what was in the “box”
   Idiots and their photo editing fails
