Real or photoshopped?
Saw this on another forum, with some thinking real and some saying chop job. I have no idea about the buck or the story behind it, but it looks real to me. If it's photoshopped, it's a very good one.
Whatcha think?

RE: Real or photoshopped?
I think it is a fake. In the top photo. Those shadows were made in some sort of photo editing program. A real shadow whould continue and show up on the back of the cab of the truck and the spare tire sort of distorted, not float in space like this one does. Also in the bottom photo look at the tines that stick up above the bed of the truck on the left side. They have a shadow on the building behind the truck but look how big that shadow is!, the shadow would be smaller and less prevolent at the distance that building is away from the truck. But hey i've been wrong before

I beleive it to be fake. The first thing I noticed were what was mentioned in the second post(the shadows). I also think that the deer may have been that wide but I think they added a few inches to its tine length.

RE: Real or photoshopped?
im experienced with photoshop and thats definately a chop. look at the deer's right brow tine, where it gets skinny. that deer would have broken that thing off just rubbing off his velvet. i dont know why people get such a joy out of chopping like that. hell if i want bragging rights over somethine i'd photochop myself into bed with a bunch of slamming chicks and emil it to all my friends
now that would be worth the trouble.

RE: Real or photoshopped?
I'd say fake as well, they tried to hard to shadow and it's inconsistant for a flash, especially that far behind the antlers on the trucks cab and window....you can tell they created the black shadows around the antlers.....
