Re: Need an EXPERT'S opinion
So the opinion here is that it's NOT a fake photo, right?

Didn't mean to start a thread that would turn into a men vs. women drivers war!!

Re: Need an EXPERT'S opinion
It still could be a fake photo but if it is photoshopped it's very well done, pespective is spot on, the reflection of the kerb, the colour matching of the car to fit the lighting of the scene have all been done expertly. I think it's a real photograph of a fake scene.

Re: Need an EXPERT'S opinion
I've just spent a few minutes trying to recreate this image with a different car....

Theres a few things i forgot to add ... the reflection of the womans arm, the new wheel for the jeep..etc and the car doesn't match the scene perfectly but... i thought i'd try anyway!

Re: Need an EXPERT'S opinion
Not a bad attempt all in all, the car seems brighter than the scene however like it was shot in a car showroom.

Maiden, you are just liek my dad, he judges people by their cars, anyone with a bmw is an idiot and people with peugeots (hate that spelling, has to be french doesn't it! ), renults (another dumb spelt car) and other french cars and vaxhalls and rovers he thinks they dont care about waht they own and drive too slow, he jsut praises anything japanese.
My dad doesn't moan about women drivers, till your waiting to get into a pump at the petrol station and instead of moving off they sit there doing their make up then he moans about women drivers

Re: Need an EXPERT'S opinion
I'd say it's a real photo - that reflection of the woman is just too good. Besides, wouldn't a montage artist have produced a more extreme result?

Steve said the Photo was real, of which I agree, whether or not the scene is actually staged is a whole different matter.

Yeah, I think it's staged as well. But I wouldn't say the situation is entirely impossible.
