You called yourself out as a specialist.

The photo you claim looks fake is on the Wire / Yahoo / Reuters.

The photo is posted on the 1 year aniversary of the Hezbollah kidnapping and is on the Lebanon - Israeli border with Israel, it happes to be a desert.

While a photo may look fake or unreal, that is a far cry from being unreal. While your opinion is certainly valid, you are fighting solid facts - a sources press photo, with pure speculation. Further, you cite not one fact that supports it is a fake.

I did look at your link, as I thought you may have been an expert, but your photos are all quite clearly doctored and shed no light on the validity of this Press Photo.

I said I specialise in fake photos as a joke, maybe you missed that part of my post. Never did I claim to "be a specialist". Who cares WHERE they're posted at. It may be fake or real, I'm simply saying it LOOKS fake.

The wire service photo from Reuters has been up a day and a half now. If it were fake it would have been removed as there would have been complaints.

Most of these complainers on FR have another agenda it seems.

I pasted it into Photoshop. The bottom of the billboard is perfectly straight -- down to the pixel.

The odds of that occuring by chance are almost as slim as TheOtherOne breaking 70 on an IQ test.
