The giant spider, which is identified as an insect, which it isn't, nor is it a spider, is a product of forced perspective. I expect most of them are real in that they are not manipulated in Photoshop. On 8/31/2012 2:35 PM, Daniel J.

From: Daniel J.

Number 18. This Unbelievable Shot Of The 2012 Supermoon In Rio de Janeiro is an obvious composite. Number 17. An Up Close Picture Of One Of The World's Largest Insects, The Giant Camel Spider uses wide angle lens distortion to make them look a lot larger than they really are. Camel Spiders aren't that big, and technically are not spiders. Like bees wasps, if you leave them alone they'll mostly leave you alone. Other than those, I think they're all for real. Even #17 is for real, if you allow for it using camera trickery to exaggerate the size. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
