i usually speckled dual cloned birds, reduce right dilemma of a “flamingos photo”, see for yourself, same accurate pixels, one somewhat smaller. this competitor should be disqualified, leaves we wondering who are a judges who acknowledge this blatant fakery to a photography contest

instead of red arrowing listen to this and try and oppose me: a design with a flamingos and a boat, how is it probable that a vessel leaves no arise whatsoever or if it is still it should generate some ripples n a H2O around it. Looks so fake! a ducks behind it leave a arise in a water. Plus wouldn’t a birds be frightened by a vessel flitting by them? they don’t seem to notice it during all! The pespective is also off on a boat, review a viewpoint craft of a birds and see it yourself. Proportions are also off: a vessel is approach too large for a position, review an normal sized flamingo with a normal sized man. There’s so many flaws in this one! and there are some-more in other pictures! immature arrow this if we determine after delicately examining a “photo”! I’m an design modifying consultant and pledge photographer.
