Photographic expertise definitely needed.
I never noticed the bench edge before but you’re completely correct - and the center of a bench is where one would expect the most not the least wear. And what is that on Zero’s left hand? is that a ring?
That's because its a Photoshop fake.
And the obvious response is: Maybe there is a photo just like you say but it’s not on the internet. What percentage of your family photos from that period are publicly available on the internet?
This analysis is only mildly interesting unless it disproves that Obama Sr.'s visit ever took place, that it was manufactured.
However, we have Barbara Nelson's recollection of Obama Sr. visiting Mabel Hefty's fifth grade classroom at Punahou in 1971 just before Christmas break. Allegedly, she recalls Zero's daddy speaking with a clipped British accent.
And according to the Star Bulletin (2007), "Hefty invited his father to give a talk to the class during a visit to Hawaii". And also:
Pal Eldredge, Barry's math and science teacher, was there to hear the talk, along with his own homeroom class. Obama remembers Eldredge as a "big, no-nonsense Hawaiian," but he was a rookie teacher still learning the ropes from Hefty.
More from Eldredge (New York Times 2009-01-03):
Pal Eldredge, one of Mr. Obama’s teachers, recalled the day the elder Mr. Obama visited his son’s class. The father was specially dressed in an African wrap-around skirt and sandals and spoke in a British accent about education in Kenya, Mr. Eldredge said, while the son was “looking at the ground, shuffling his feet.” In his book, Mr. Obama wrote that he was sheepish because he had told friends that his father was an African prince.
So, did Obama, Sr., visit his son in Hawaii in 1971, or not?
It was determined fake years ago. 0 was inserted between the grandparents and Stanley’s giant hand was put there for who knows what. The pic posted above has had even more “adjustments” such as Stanley’s crotch and 0’s left hand. BTW, the so called wedding ring isn’t a wedding ring which he wore for manyyears before he was married. It has elephants on it and has a specific islamic name which I can’t recall at the moment. So, anytime the msm mentions it (the time he wasn’t wearing it and it was claimed he and moo were arguing or it had been sent out to be cleaned, whatever), they are lying.

The airport photos appear “shopped” to me. Once the photos are enlarged, lights (one instance, the tree; other, fluorescent (?)) cut into the right cheek of Sr. I now see it plainly even when they are not enlarged.
Hard to believe. The colors are so ... real. The hands ... so expressive. The way Barry is leaning on Granpa. I mean who could fake that?
The quality of this work rules out the KGB, anyway, don't you think.
