If the boeing/moon is a double, it's well done. The light angle fits very well, and the plane is slightly blurred. But it seems almost too good to be true, though.
Actually, I'm more suspicious about the authenticity northern pike picture. To my knowledge, the pike always takes its prey head first. Otherwise the prey would live longer and be able to put up much more struggle, and would be more difficult to swallow because of the fins and gills pointing the wrong way. The most manipulated images I think must be the false-colour astro images by Hubble. :-) Jostein ----- Original Message ----- From: "Thomas Stach" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, January 28, 2004 7:30 PM Subject: Re: Best pix of 2003 > Hi list, > ... > > t> Just out of curiousity...do any of these looked dovtored to you? > > What do you think about the 747 passing the moon? > > I think with a focal lenght of about 1600mm equiv., > one of the two should be out of focus...depth of field is very flat...or > is it already hyperfocal at 35.000 feet? > ;-) > > Thomas > > > > > Bruce Dayton schrieb: > > > > Hello tom, > > > > Yes, some of them do.
