We are always seeking perfection. The perfect moment, the perfect person, etcetera. One of the things people always strive for perfection in is their photos. However, sometimes, there’s value in imperfections as well.
Local YouTuber-singer DIOR大颖 recently posted a beautiful photo of herself with the Petronas Twin Towers in the background. However, netizens noted a little distortion in her photo. Although odd, it certainly made a lot of people laugh!
Dior usually posts very thoughtful statements alongside her photos. Her recent one is no different. This time, along with a lovely selfie, Dior wrote: “Photos are like life. Just let (them) keep their purest and original appearance.”
However, as it turns out, her photo isn’t exactly in its original form. Netizens noted that one side of the photo was “warped”, making one tower and the buildings beside it look bent. They were quick to comment on it. “KLCC is in danger,” one joked. “It can’t be (fixed).” Another quipped: “Why is there no news reporting about the earthquake?” A netizen teasingly said, “The background is actually the Leaning Tower (of Pisa), not the Twin Towers, right?” Others left laughing emojis to let her know how much they enjoyed the odd flaw.
Unfortunately, netizens were in two minds if Dior had done it on purpose or if it was by mistake. One netizen stated, “Check first before (you) post, ok?” Others were certain it was on purpose. “Deliberate, right?” one comment asked. Finally, Dior made a comment to jokingly clarify issues. “You guys are really annoying,” she said. “I already stated that I’m in Italy now.”
Nevertheless some attempted to ‘fix’ her photo with their skills. It didn’t go too well, but it certainly brought more laughter to both Dior and her followers. One user tried his best and made Dior look very muscular in her left arm. Dior herself commented on the attempt, saying: “Next season of WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment), I’m competing with this photo.”
It certainly was a bright spot for many people to enjoy, regardless of it being deliberate or not. Sometimes, people just want a good laugh rather than a perfect pic!
