what is it supposed to be?

It looks fake because the angle on the rock looks wrong.

I dont know if it is photoshopped... It seems to be a picture of an arab throwing a rock. Why would they photoshop that?

How do you make this judgement? There are no other clues as to where the shadows should be cast.

There are tons of arabs who throw rocks... Why would anyone have to make up a photoshopped picture of this?



Here is a picture of Edward Said throwing a rock at Jews:

With my eyes.

There are no other clues as to where the shadows should be cast.

I said the angle looked wrong, not the shadows.

The question wasn't why someone would it was whether it looked fake.

Ok,

I guess I dont share your eyes because I dont notice any problem with angles here. Not that I really care about this picture but if you would explain which angle you are sensitive to in this picture?

It doesn't look like he's throwing it the way I would throw a rock. He looks like he's throwing it in a wimpy flail your arm out to the side and let the rock go kind of throw. It could be real I just think the angle is strange.

An arab with a rock is like a bird with a beak.

(I quote the pic here because others pics have been quoted since)

He looks like he has alot of hair.. Is that actually not a he, just a very ugly "masculine faced" woman ?

It looks kinda fake But The lighting looks fairly accurate and the outline of the rock looks identical to how the outline is for the hand..

I say 50 50.

I agree,the point the arm is at seems like a strange point of release.The arm seems like it should be forward more.

[GodGunsAndGlory]

I doubt its real because there is no motion blur from the rock moving nor it spinning which it should be.

This photo can be correct only if taken by a very fast camera or the woman has thrown the stone with the flick of her wrist alone without much moving the arm.
