Photo of the Day

Good idea, thanks for sharing the photo.

I know it is too early

Forget the cookies, look at those beautiful brown eyes.

Dlane, LuanLouis:

May i too...?
This was the "Photo of the day" (for me) 3 days ago. My parents had a wedding anniversary - 47 years together wonderfull!



This is a photo of a photo, so it's not very pretty.

Thank you on their behalf!

Lovely photo Wolf.

Good morning
you are all invited, there are enough cookies

This is my picture of the day. My maternal grandpa. The pic was taken in italy .... missing him so much.

A shout out to war veterans everywhere, the true heroes of this world.

Bring on the sweet potato. It's that time of year.

LuanLouis...What a beautiful young one!

Wolf...What a testimonial to love! So beautiful, the look in their eyes...

A week ago in my yard, the beautiful leaves on the tress...
Today, upon awakening, when I looked out my bedroom window...
The first dusting of snow for the season...

Oh no, way to soooooooooooon.

This can't be real, can it?

Fake. In my opinion. (Not want unnecessary to go into details, if it reaches to discussion - I will give arguments).

...

Thanks, Wolf. Photoshop and the like used to be easy to spot in the olden days but anymore I can't tell. The caption probably should have been a dead giveaway but you never know.

WolfM, without launching into a major discussion (unless you want to), I'm interested to know how you can tell it's fake. I have no technical knowledge of photography, but I want to learn.

I propose here to answer about this photo, and later I will quote your question and will comment in the topic About photography?
I'll just be more neatly. I think it's the right.
Moreover, this particular image can not be used for illustration.
Because I do not see signs of manipulation* there to point out as ''physical evidence''; i.e. - my opinion above is based more per ... ''psychological dissection'' and logical consequences, so to say. I will explain. ...and it shall be a quite long ..
...
I started to write, but converges to quite boring, so I refused to post it.
In short, I will say so - given what I've seen on the issue, the most logical and normal reaction would be, if the photo is real - the author to confirm this in plain text. But he do not do this (even though he is not indifferent and commented on the strident criticism about him).
So, my belief is not based on what he said, rather - what is not.
If it seems strange, i would have to write the long version

* - The question of what is "manipulated photo" will touch in more detail in the other thread

How did you access the author's comments? I get nowhere when I click anywhere on that image.

I don't know Cryptic, those parents look reeeallly focused.

Deleted the link to long for the post.

I found it, still can't click on it.
