A new algorithm can spot fake photos by looking for inconsistent shadows that are not always obvious to the naked eye.

Will this new miracle technique work on Long Form Birth Certificates or University records?

Continuing with my post #40 above, between the black teen’s legs there should be something more instead of total darkness. Just compare with those sitting next to him.

Black people absorb all the light around them.

Actually, someone told me, “Black people draw heat.” That’s why rooms will a lot of black people in them get warm.

I'll leave it to you to evaluate all this, it's not a subject I've spent much time with. As for Gilbert, if you say he's a fraud, so be it.

Now this one is very suspicious!

One more item.

The trim stripes on the black teen's uniform show white on the outside edge.

None of the trim stripes on the other player's uniforms show white outside the trim.

Are there any other pictures of obama at this age?

No one has mentioned it but the black teen with the Punahou team doesn't even look like obama to me. I know people change from their teens to adulthood but come on........ Is this really him?

There is a HUGE assumption that there is only one light source

There's a phenomenon I've observed repeatedly. On a bright but overcast day, while driving on a freeway, I frequently see a car ahead of me casting a shadow on both sides. Nothing mysterious about it, since diffuse light is coming from the entire sky. However, I wonder how their algorithm would handle that.

6. The shadow across the shoulders of the black teen isn’t matched on any of the other people in the picture (which is why I posted the picture).

I can't find anything wrong with that picture other than moosechelle’s slime green pant suit doesn't fit her and it is the one of the ugliest garments I have ever seen. In that respect it is perfect for her.

His expression is exactly the same as the other photo and he is bigger than everyone else. The hand on his left shoulder looks weird but it is probably the guy standing behind him.
