Pretty cool hoax made with Photoshop...

Have you seen this one...

I just seen this pretty cool hoax on Hoaxbuster (www.hoaxbuster.com)(french)...

I must admit it a pretty nice use of layers... prety realistic!

That's a pretty easy effect to do since the water in that chopper photo already has some white-water, adding the shark isn't difficult. Pretty cool.. Too bad its fake

I honestly dont think it looks real at all.. the shark just look out of place or something, just doesnt look real to me... but good hoax to the untrained eye i guess :D

Might have been a good masking/blending job, but the photo subject of the shark itself is far too dramatic and franky out of place to look real. Its very defined in all the whipping wind and water trauma. In a real life image, the shark could indeed be jumping out of the water. But it would have far more wind and water affecting the area around it plus it would most likely have a lot of motion blurring going on.

yea that's a big shark...
never seen that before, but i was mesmorized for a while looking at it's beauty *swoon*

A kid in my school brought that in and everybody thought it was real until I explained the steps taken to create it. Only Photoshopee's could notice I guess.

You know, if you tried, you could make a "land-shark".
