I wish to observe that: 1.)The young ladies innocence is clearly depicted in both photographs. 2.) I was greatly sadden that the link labeled “curvaceous, but shaking dancer and singer” failed open properly.

It looks to me like the first shot is color skewed. It probably was taken using incandescent lighting which skews the colors towards yellow/red.

The whitening shows us a profoundly intolerant society that doesn't support diversity …
