It's the nature of photography. Not photoshop.

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?

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. Thank you Wendy.

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.

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. I don’t buy it.
