Title: 90's vs 00's PICTURE Style
Post by: Boost on November 04, 2008, 12:54:53 PM
Has the change in photo style warped our sense of conditioning?

On the left : Origional Flex online pic
On the right : 90's style pic that gives the illusion of better conditioning

Here is another interesting comparison,
Hell, even Jay looks grainy in this pic!
The Flex Online pics really are garbage

That's a good point. I also think if you put some of the guys from 70's on a stage with the 00's lighting, they'd all look horribly out of shape as far as bodybuilders are concerned.

All lighting, angles and picture quality.
Flexonline pictures are awful, Muscletime's are much better.

Very interesting.

This is why graininess is not a (completely) valid reason to judge condition by, whereas separation shows in almost any light. In the shot above, Wheeler and Ray would have those lat and spinal erector striations and separation even under today's lighting conditions, as evident in the Silvio S.S. comparison.
