Did you notice the halo around Ted Kennedy’s head during the death week?

as tawana brawley would say “it was manipsulated”
As a photoshop artist i can say it is a fake.
if it were real you would see the light coming through his ear from the other side.

It is insane of them to allow that photograph to be posted to the White House website.
They are absolutely out-of-their-minds nuts.

Considering there are no supporting poles, wires, stands, etc for a light source, one can only conclude the halo was photoshopped. The halo is just too perfectly placed to be real.

I've been in MANY airplane hangars ...

On the wall there is a hugely unlikely place for a light of any kind. Just doesn't make any sense.

Photoshop job, sez I.

I’m sure the photographer was just trying to get the background light blocked so as to not ruin the shot..../sarc

No big deal. You see this in newspapers all the time, the editor decides there is not enough contrast between subject and background, so he takes PS and blasts in “contrast” to make the subject stand out. If that was done in this case it was a sloppy job (or a deliberate attempt for a halo, like during the campaign).

If it is a light behind his head, it’s wall-mounted. Usually, a light that close will not make a “halo” when you put something in front of it. Bright lights far away scatter light along the path, which shows up when you shadow the light itself.

It would be nice if there were more pictures from the same event.

Even if they did mount a light there for the photo it would have interfered with all of the pictures taken from this location except when he stepped directly in the right spot to block it. A professional photographer either made this happen on purpose, or it’s a fake, he wouldn’t be there otherwise.

Some Freeper who knows how to post pics needs to go to the book by Hitler’s photographer who doctored a picture of Hitler with the cross above his head and post that pic. It’s in the photographer’s book “Hitler Was My Friend.”

Years ago, in Paris, a casual aquaintance said to me: "Les Americains sont stupides."

Of course I was outraged. Instinctively I defended my countrymen.

"If it were not for the Americans," I said, "the French would be Germans."

However, after reflecting on the people who elected Jimmy Carter to the Presidency, Bill Clinton twice, and Barack Obama--who allow Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid to lead Congress--who allowed Teddy Kennedy to return to the Senate year after year--et al.--I might not disagree if she said it to me now.

Is that an incandescent halo or the government mandated compact florescent halo?
IMHO, BO’s juvenile Lefties do this to get conservatives in a dither. We ought to simply laugh at these sophomoric antics. Obviously, these taxpayer-paid BO cultists have nothing better to do...which is a very, very good thing for the nation.
