It's really depressing that it won - also ironic that the moon actually 
detracts - he didn't need to insert that to do well

But the clouds can be from the other side of the Earth... or Moon...
... No, they are from Mars, coming to Moon as a part of the seasons, when 
it becomes to cold on Mars... And then going back to Mars.

Don't keep us in suspense Stan. What is the take-off weight of that

Well, the fact that the moon is obscuring some of the clouds is a bit of a 
give-away.
(Not to mention the rather obvious dark ring round the moon)

Ok ok yes I believed you. But I had to check anyway…

On Oct 12, 2011 when the photo was allegedly taken,
in the Masai Mara where the dastardly deed was done,
in the early morning as implied by the title of the image:

1. The moon was full at 0505 that morning.
2. The moon set at 0620 on a bearing of 281.4° as seen from the casual 
observers position on Saltlick road. I.e., basically a bit North of West. 
3. The sun rose at 0623 that morning, as you might expect, on a bearing of 
97.3°, a bit South of East.

The photo is shopped. QED.

Not a great cutout either. Pretty clear artifacts along the circumference.

I think there's an exposé thread about it going on too.
