    I don’t buy it. It’s remarkable what can be done with PhotoShop. Don’t believe me? Take a close look at the top of the statue of liberty. Compare the size of the buildings to the miniscule men. The men are so small, they could easily walk under the closed doors of the buildings.

    Take a look at the liberty bell. The perspective is way off to the background. Also, the upper edge of the liberty bell is clearly defined with sharp lines, but just past the “men” are buildings that are too fuzzy to identify.

    A friends Father is in this photo that was in four pieces. I scanned them and but it back together using GIMP. Compare the original scans with the finished work. I thought I did a good job of retouching and filling in missing info. Photo of 209th Engineers - Camp Sheridan AL 1919 You can see it here: http://picasaweb.google.com/jdavidgunter/1919PhotoOf209thEngineersCampSheridanAL1919

    I checked Snopes.com and I believe that the last one is real, but taken relatively recently, instead of in WWI… unless they copied it recently… but there was definitely a similar formation of the statue of liberty photgraphed in Afghanistan or Iraq.. I forget which

    Of course a little (5 seconds) of research will get you to the library of congress site which shows these are legit

    Thank you Wendy. People like to show how smart they are by assuming everything is fake and coming up with elaborate analyses on the fakeness of real things that happened in the past. But when they have a knee-jerk reaction to everything without having some knowledge of history, they just end up looking silly. People should be skeptical of skeptics.

    By the way, Wendy’s link only works if you cut and paste it, at least in Firefox.

    Even in those days they knew how to manipulate photographs.
    Don’t you remember?
    We need to have some contemporary witnesses in order to attest the pictures to be real ones (without being retouched).

    By the way: Whats wrong about being sceptical?

    The fact remains that in order to get everyone in the picture focuses are required to be in one place and not in another, you would have people being smaller in the rear, buildings too. It’s the nature of photography. Not photoshop.
