What are some real pictures that look fake?

 With the advent of internet and photoshopping, we have been fooled so much that we carefully scrutinise every photo before deciding if it’s fake or not. Here are some photos which you probably would have thought to be fake but are actually the result of perfect timing and good angles

  1. Most people probably dismiss this as photoshopped or at most an optical illusion but it’s actually a sculpture on a beach in Sydney, Australia.

2. Is it a computer chip? Or a miniature? Well it’s actually a stunning aerial photo of Manhattan,NY.

3. Internet art? It’s a disturbing real life photo of cancer cells multiplying.

4. Fishermen wading though a polluted Chinese river blooming with Algae.

5. Looks probably photoshopped but actually is a photo of the bull with the biggest set of horns in the world.

6. Fluffy bunny

7. Not some extraterrestrial creature but the common giant crab just minding its business and trying to get inside the garbage “spaceship” bin.

8. Lookin like a misplaced Dorito but is just a plain old mountain panorama.

8. Exists in Poland

9. Actual trees in Namibia, photographed against a giant dune.

10. Just a typical landing on the airport of San Martin.

Guess a picture paints a thousand words, albeit bemusing.
