Spock 'N Awe

Today's NYTimes has a story about actor/photographer Leonard Nimoy's artsy nude photos of overweight women.

He describes his photos as a reaction to unrealistic pressure placed on women to be thin by the media and fashion industries.

The article appears between women's fashion ads for Macy's and Saks Fifth Avenue.

Spock' N Awe

I particularly appreciate the ad on the right. Below the stick-thin, shapeless model's feet appear the words Happy Mother's Day.

Good eye! I read it online, so missed the irony in the ad placement.
