Why do photos on ID cards make people feel ugly?

The "ugliness" of the ID photo has been spit out. A survey shows that 80% of the respondents are not satisfied with their ID cards. However, the current electronic system recognition technology is not enough to fully support photo recognition functions beyond the requirements of ID cards, such as keeping bangs and covering ears with hair. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it is almost inevitable that the photos are ugly.

The police said that the photo of the ID card is not "ugly", but truly reflects a person's face. Moreover, when taking photos, the police will try their best to make the photos of residents look more comfortable.

The experience of taking ID photos is unforgettable. What's going on in the world, everyone wants to vomit, and it is estimated that the ID card can also be counted as one.

In recent years, ID photos of various stars have been widely circulated on the Internet. Many stars are far from their usual images because of their hairstyles or plain looks. In the exposed posts, it seems that the photos of Zhou Xun, Zhao Wei, Xu, Li Bingbing, Huang Xiaoming, Crystal, Angel, etc. were all taken in the student days, which are not as beautiful as those in movies and TV, and are no different from passers-by.

In order to obtain effective and high-quality ID photos, the public security organs have seven specifications for photo shooting.

On the wall of the studio, the reporter saw these seven specifications: 1. Keep your sitting posture straight and your head straight when shooting; 2. Wear dark collared clothes when shooting; 3. Before shooting, the hair should be tidied up, the long hair should show the ears, and the bun should not be placed on the top of the head; Wash the sweat and oil on your face before shooting. Heavy makeup will affect the quality of your documents. Please remove your makeup yourself. 5. Wear glasses for a long time to take pictures, please wear a spectacle frame without lenses; 6. Can't wear all kinds of jewelry; 7. If you dye colored hair or a strange hairstyle, you must restore your true colors.

So it is difficult to meet the above requirements.

However, some photographers think that the people who get ID cards are amateurs and the machines used are also very poor. "Even taking an inch of photos in a photo studio is better than this. Simple mechanical operation will inevitably lead to this result. "

There is another saying: it is said that this is a well-thought-out strategy of the police station. If you are ugly, don't take it out, but hide it deep and then don't lose it. It was deeply shocked by the wisdom of the public security. ...
