Best Cover Winner
GQ
"The World's 50 Greatest Living Athletes," November 2017
Fred Woodward, Designer
Pari Dukovic, Photographer
"When the World's Greatest Living Athlete is also an off-the-court phenom in business, in movies, and increasingly in politics, the time allotted for a photo shoot is limited (it was 45-minutes from the frame to the last). But photographer Pari Dukovic nevertheless captured LeBron James in a timeless, almost deified image that shows the strength, fierceness, and regal nature of GQ’s November cover subject. One worthy of blowing up and framing like a piece of art (which we did).



This portrait is very good because the lighting is very good, and it matches the title of it as "The King". It fits this because his skin is almost a golden color, and the background is a golden color. Also, he's wearing a crown on his head, which fits the 'king" description. Also, LeBron James is a huge inspiration to me. The fact that he can do so much in basketball and outside of basketball is incredible to me. That's part of the reason I like this portrait so much. It shows that he's a king in basketball because he's one of the greatest players to ever play the game, but he's also a king outside of basketball because he's done so much for the community, and his family.

The model was made bigger, and then they made her skin tone brighter and yellow, then finally they made her bra pepperoni, and then they turned her into pizza. 4. No it's not ethically acceptable to change a person's appearance like this because they changed everything about the way the person looks, and it is almost false advertising. 5. Yes, if they showed before and after pictures, that would be more ethically wrong because they would be saying the product could make you look like the model after photoshop. 6. The changes that were ok is making the model's legs longer to make her seem taller. 7. In fashion photography, th...
