The photos showed run-down housing construction projects At first, I thought the article was about public housing projects, but after digging some, I find it was about McMansions.

“Does anyone know if the Photos were DIGITALLY TAKEN? I.E. No Film?”
The only photographers who use film any more are “art photographers”. Everyone else uses digital.

Don’t know why the headline says “Public Housing.” The photo essay was on unfinished and unoccupied condos and high-end residential property.
It focused on private building projects that have been abandoned due to the economy.

"Split photo. Both sides are the same." If that was the only issue, then the markings/debris on the floor would be symmetrical. This may mean that the debris was photoshopped in as well.

Odd huh. I was about to apply for public housing after seeing that pic. ;-)

"Had the editors known that the photographs had been digitally manipulated, they would not have published the picture essay," the editors note says.In other words, "Let's do the nasty deed and then apologize for it later."
