Default Can you spot the merge? Faker?



One more post before I get ready to go to my Grams funeral. Anyway I think what gives it away as a fake is the concrete barriers. The angle you see is only about 8 inches tall before it goes almost vertical. So the way this looks the water would be about 2 inches deep.

What do you think?

Unless the concrete barriers are stacked on top of one another.

I have met this dude.

The photo hangs in https://www.ormsdirect.co.za/ - were it was first developed from film. Having seen it on emails I asked about its authenticity and was pointed to the photographer standing on the other side of the shop discussing DSLR's with a salesman.
