Well all i can say is mind blown on some of these pictures, and all of them are confirmed real.





With more and more people becoming proficient at using image editing software like Photoshop it can be hard to tell whether what you see on the internet is real or fake.

While most of the time your skepticism is probably going to serve you well, every once in a while you may be in for a bit of shock. These 25 images you won’t believe weren’t Photoshopped will probably do just that.



Here is the webpage were you can view these crazy images.
25 Images You Won’t Believe Weren’t Photoshopped


This picture is surreal, and one picture i would be convinced was photoshopped.

Known as a Janus cat after the Roman God who looked both forwards and backwards, Frank and Louie is currently in the Guinness Book of World Records for being the oldest surviving Janus cat in the world (12 years)


The there this freaky picture.

in 2010 a boy was born in China with a total of 31 digits (15 fingers and 16 toes). He has since had surgery to remove the extra appendages.

Some of the photos were pretty convincing, but the rest? I can't believe people fell for it!

I did think that the cloud inside the room was a lovely piece of art, but what in the heck was that last pic supposed to be? Cthulhu rising from the sea?

The giant rabbits right out of 'Night of the Lepus' b-movie blows my mind. When I first watched the video I for sure thought it was a fake. I guess not.



As for the kid with 31 digits, he should have kept them. They could have made him an Olympic swimmer. Phelps wouldn't stand a chance against him.

The Namibia shot ..try as I might..

I cannot get mental perspective to the field of view to make sense of what they say that is. No perspective. It looks like an orange wall of color thrown in for the background.


I have a problem getting my head around this picture aswel, the brain doesn't compute..lol


This picture was taken in the Namibian desert at twilight.
The yellow/orange background is not the sky, it’s actually a sand dune and the spots are patches of white grass. The foreground is bluish and dark as a result of being in the shade.

I can see it now that you posted a still shot. I don't think the white stuff is grass though because you can clearly see the grass to the right of the picture. I think they could be rocks instead because I've never, in any light, seen white grass.

You know, I still can't get my mind to see it. I just can't get a handle anywhere for depth or scale. That's the problem. It looks the same in each corner as it does in the middle...so it comes off to my mind as a wall of speckled color...not a 3-d object in the world of the picture. How weird.... I would LOVE to see that same setting zoomed out to get the full sense of what was being photographed. I'm not usually one to remain in a cloud of confusion on an image, even after it's spelled out carefully but darned if there isn't a first for everything.

It's an orange background with the spray paint tool set to white and used too much. I know what it IS...but that is what it looks like, no matter how I try.

I had to dig further into that Namibia desert picture for my own peace of mind.

I came across some other shoots taken by the same guy Frans Lanting from the same location





It's still mind boggling.

I'm looking at as an orange colored sandy hill and the camera just isn't showing the top of the hill. The hill rises from the flat land and if you look close enough it looks like shaded parts of the hill are a deeper orange.

The lighter dots are rocks littered up the side of the hill.

Peace

I can't even believe that this one was actually taken at Innsmouth, New England...



It may not be shopped, but I am not sure that is seaweed.

wh-wh-where's the sky?
I'd curl up and cry like a little baby if I was caught dead in that area. My brain wouldn't be able to take it, it looks like a trip.

That would appear to be the Yangtze river waterfall. Google has a great image return display for a search on it.

@Snapperski

Thank You for finding the same basic scene with perspective. NOW it makes sense. I agree, it's still hard to quite...see it. It makes sense given the others though. The world is a strange strange place. If only I had a million to spend just visiting places to see them.
