I have NFI what you're talking about, but as it's snowing here, I'm glad there are no color categories that aren't white.

wait, I don't see how that is forced perspective -is that not a guy holding a barbie doll? and if not, then surely some shopping is involved as I doubt she was just floating in front of the camera with no background?
