Last week, we showed you how hotels stage and Photoshop photos. This week, we show you what a little clever cropping can do.
South Beach’s Aqua Hotel isn’t a horrible place to stay, but it’s definitely not all its website makes it out to be. Even granting that the hotel can’t be expected to have the hotty model around all the time, the “pool” – which in fact is no bigger than a hot tub – is laughably less impressive than the carefully cropped images on the hotel’s home page might suggest.

Why is the guy in the pool with his surfboard anyways? Ha.
Holy cow. I wonder how silly that model felt while standing in there being photographed with a surfboard.
