DPWH Photoshop Fail

[botoy0917]

Mu-edit bitaw nang mga major newspapers and magazines, but im pretty sure na ang editing done is limited to retouching, airbrushing, ug color correction para munindot lang tan-awun ang mga dagway sa mga starring sa photo. Dili pareho ani na gi TELEPORT jud ang mga tinuhak sa laing lugar. Unya na ila pa jud gi-deny na naay photoshopped ang picture unya "genuine" daw tung ilang palpak na pic. tsk tsk. No excuse ni, ifootball jud.

OT: nagkatawa ko sa TELEPORT part... sakto jud ka bai noel..

Washington Post: "Philippines officials Photoshop themselves into typhoon cleanup photo"

In the cleanup photo, the three officials appeared to be assessing the damage of the typhoon, but one discerning blogger and civil engineer noticed that something didn’t seem quite right.

A careful look at the photo shows that the officials seem to be floating in mid-air, and that their images were likely dragged into the scene using Photoshop’s lasso tool.
