I think I recognize this image, but I can’t think of where I recognize it from.

The [Tin Eye](http://www.tineye.com/search/0e513d39519115fef78904f4d4f25f54519894b9/) results show that it was originally a color image, and the girl has pink hair. And [this result](http://www.istockphoto.com/stock-photo-3665509-offencive-schoolgirl.php) indicates it’s just a stock image.

Oh wow, thanks for showing me that site. Hadn’t heard of it.

I want to read about the site now. Does it just compare some pixels? Or does it do somthing more interesting and AI-y than that?

I have no idea. 🙂[Idee Labs](http://labs.ideeinc.com/) is another neat image searching and identification site that works a little differently, if you’re curious.

ETA: The [Tin Eye FAQ](http://www.tineye.com/faq#how) explains all! Well…sort of.

Referring, of course, to the British spelling of “offence”, where in the USA we spell it “offense”.

The girl actually has a sort of ‘character name’ on the site - Tabitha Gnillort. He has used that name and the picture as a fake identity on occasion.

Hmmm, stock photo, photographer Lev Dolgatshjov, she’s likely an Estonian model…

Uh. Some of the shots of her are even less “young girl appropriate” than that one. I’m hoping she’s 18. Alert - NSFW for lingerie shots.

If you zoom in a little, her face is a bit odd, I’d pass on that.

I do believe I have found the model’s personal Livejournal.

[http://deedl.livejournal.com/](http://deedl.livejournal.com/)

Her name is Darja Tokranova, and she is quite the graphic artist in her own right, going under her real name or the handles Deedl, Deedlit, Deedlith, and DeeDee, among others.

As far as I can tell she is currently 25, so was likely at least 21 at the time of the shoot.

Wow, she does awesome work! Those bookmarks are lovely, not to mention her other projects.
