Is this picture real

Exit

or a photoshop?

It seems like the kinda dumb thing she would do, but it seems a bit too idiotic, even for her.



EDIT: Wow, I guess images have been turned off in AH since the last time I've been here.

Damn that looks pretty good, im extremely tempted to say its real... but my better judgement says no

Chick

If it is real then shame on her.

Dinner

I wouldnt think its real.

Very good photoshoppage though

gregos

Dreadful woman anyway. Full of crap.

Coolésin

fake....the shadows dont measure out evenly...unless there were 2 differnet lights shining on her from different angles but with the same brightness..but i doubt it

If it is a chop job it was head/face only....or else a PS god with waaay too much time on their hands.

Unless it's a backing dancer dressed up to be a homeless invalid...

If it's real, it shows Ms Carey is willing to stoop to any level to promote herself and her "music" output; photo-ops with wheelchair bound vagrants aren't that common on Sunset Blvd...

Because it's as if she came across him and said "oh look at the cute homeless guy. Can I get my picture taken with him?"

EDIT: Or what he said.

Obviously a photoshop job, if you look at her ass, There's a chunk out of it. Her it's easier to show you.

Also her shadow running along the right hand side of her arm seems a little bit too solid looking and black.

I don't have any photoshop/photography experience so purely out of curiosity I ask why do people here think it's a well done fake? What has the artist taken care of that most fakers usually miss?

It looks fake to me but that's based purely on the context of who's in it.

tovalee

i think its real, heres the same guy with Sean P-who-ever -he-is-this -week

That horrible disease ridden thing ,more than likely mental





















Whats it doing next to the homeless man

That's actually a press shot from her new film with Samuel L Jackson entitled "The Princess and the pauper". Check it on imdb.com if you don't believe me.

Don't you know Mariah Carey brings her own personal lighting wherever she goes in case of a photo op with a homeless person?

Obviously a photoshop btw

Yea the face only has been changed. There are obvious smudging top left/right of the forehead. I'd also say the neck as well was smudged but it could just be jpeg compression.

Its not a well done fake. To spot photoshopped pictures convert them to negative. Hand edits show up very blatant. I've marked areas where the smudging/softening appears to have happened.

The attachement is low quality (so again it shows out more).

Look at the way the light falls on her face. That picture of her was taken in light and then pasted in to this night time photo

Would that not be either her arse against one of the spokes, or part of the pattern on the dress wrapping around.
Actually now i look at it closer, it's a bit blury all down there. And is her face a bit blury also?

Lump

Yea, I would have thought that, but as you say, it's the blurring, looks like the person tried to blend it to the background. I would imagine, that She's been taking from a stage show and superimposed onto that pic.

She's too well lit also.

John

FranknFurter

lighting is way off, as is areas of smudging. Not only that, but the basic "quality" if her image is vastly higher than the rest, hes tried to make it look like its just that shes lit better, but if that was the case, the shadowing would fall very differently.

Also, the cuts, pares and blends he has used dont hold up even to basic zooming, some are way to sharp, others are so obviously smudged its hilarious.

And the light level in the area of his wheel would be vastly brighter going by the light on her, unless they has a "crouching mariah" shaped spot and lined it up exactly lol

Quite an amateurish job really.

hahaahaaa pwned

Seriously wtf? Why did she feel the need to pose beside a guy in a wheelchair?
What a b*tch. Theysay her sis was arrested for being a hooker...I think they got the wrong woman...:D

Shrimp

The only thing that would throw me of would be the proportions. She looks way bigger than him, then again he is a disheveled old man. So he would look smaller.

Yeah, I guess now we know not to trust our resident image experts in future. :rolleyes:

BWAAAHAHAHA

Unless they faked the whole media event, in which case, maximum kudos to the visual fx crew involved.
