Must be.
I doubt the guy at the end of the street would be standing.
A bit late for April fools.

It's amazing actually, 15 years ago no one would question the authenticity of this photo....nowadays, with the digital manipulation possibilities, anything is possible? I reccon within the next 15 years we wont even be able to submit photo's as evidence of anything? How would you prove it's real?
Anyway... who cares its a cool pic

I think the consensus on avcom thread ( if a consensus on an avcom thread is ever at all possible) was that the pic was genuine.
When using a long lens, the picture can seem a bit contorted. The Boing is actually traveling parelel to the fence and probably has plenty of runway ahead. The fence and padestrians are not as close to the Boing as it seems.

In mathimatical terms the Angle of Paralax causing a distortion to the viewer as you are only seeing a section of the actual layout.Sideslip wrote:I think the consensus on avcom thread ( if a consensus on an avcom thread is ever at all possible) was that the pic was genuine.
