Mind Blowing Photos That Look Photoshopped


If we didn’t know any better we would swear these photos were doctored in some way. You have to see it to believe it, and then you still might not even believe it.



Dean Potter's most recent solo walk at Taft Point in Yosemite by Photographer Jeff Cunningham.


Sleeping on Heaven.


Apparently, the model was just jumping!


The left-hand side is a mirror, and the right-hand side is clear glass, with another girl standing on the other side.


At the top of 360 feet tall Victoria Falls there is a natural rock pool, called Devil's Pool, where the water is relatively calm. From September to December, when the water level is low, you can swim in Devil's Pool. The pictures are bound to make you just a little nervous.


It looks Photoshopped, but this Magic Tap fountain actually has a pipe hidden in the stream of water. Located in Aqualand, Spain.


Li Wei Art.


This definitely looks photoshopped but actually it's a life-size photographic work based on the original building in Paris, printed on canvas, enhanced with bas-relief. It shelters the renovation of an Hausmannian building during the year 2007. The project is named"39GeorgeV" is an urban surrealism manifesto.


The Human Fly, a dare devil/stunt performer named Rick Rojatt, lives out the Marvel Comics character on the back of a DC-8 cruising low at 250 knots, flown by Clay Lacy at the Mojave California 1000 air races.


Headless horse... oh well, it's actually looking the other way.


Adventures of Mr. Fly (although not photoshopped we must tell you the fly is dead).


Tricky desktop picture.


The zebroid (cross between a zebra and any other equine) showed in the picture above, Eclyse, is a very unusual one, because of her coloring. With her über distinct makings, it's really hard not to think she's a Photoshop mock-up.


It looks like three glasses of wine served at the Pisa Tower. (Actually the photographer tilted the table and the camera at the same angle).


This touching shot makes aiming for the top not such a fanciful dream after all. The most famous landmark on the Parisian landscape is the perfect prop to make this little girl seem like a giant standing some 324 m (1,063 ft) tall. The low camera angle and large depth of field do the rest of the work.


Walking on water in Indonesia. (taken by 4 seconds exposure).


It looks like a mop with a face but actually it's Hungarian Puli sheep dog, Fee. In this pic he is jumping over a hurdle during a preview for a pedigree dog show in Dortmund on Thursday April 24, 2008. Photo by Frank Augstein.


Unedited mobile phone shot of a girl on her bike in front of the royal palace in Amsterdam, reflected in a puddle. No editing, no tricks, no Photoshop. This picture was chosen as 'Photo of the day' at the Metro Photo Challenge and featured in the print version of the Metro newspaper.


Single exposure. Multiple images created with custom flash synchronization and multiple flash heads.


Love is in the air, or in this case, on the Earth. This heart-shaped island looks man-made but actually it's a work from nature and was only recently highlighted by Google Earth. This cute Croatian island, lined on every side with golden sands, is located in Zadarski Kanal (Zadar Channel) between Zadar and Island of Pasman.


Vertical stripes + horizontal stripes = plaid shirt (by Rene Maltete, French photographer (1930-2000) - the photo is called “Rayures”, thanks Xavi!)


There is a magic place in Bolivia, called Salar de Uyuni, where you can take amazing pictures like these.


This is not Photoshopped — it's an actual photograph of the world's largest chair, in the piazza of Manzano, Italy. (Manzano is a city of chair makers.)


The photograph is real, no photoshop, no digital manipulation, no nothing, in fact it was shot on slide film Fuji Provia 100 using a Nikon F5 Camera and 17-35 mm lens.


For their new TV series How Hard Can It Be?, the people of National Geographic have created a 16 feet by 16 feet house inspired by the Pixar movie Up that can fly for real, thanks to 300 helium-filled weather balloons.


Teenage Stories – Photography by Julia Fullerton-Batten. Giant girls/miniature world. The artist does not use advanced Photoshop in her process, she uses small scale villages and life-size models.


Cathie Jung (USA, b. 1937) has a corseted waist measuring 15 inches. Un-corseted, it measures 21in. Her enthusiasm for Victorian clothes is why at the age of 38 she started wearing a training belt to gradually reduce her then 26in waist. She has never had surgery to define her waist.



Doreen taking an alligator ride.

Alexa Meade's pieces look like paintings, but they're actually photographs of painted subjects.


You might think that this Thumbnail Turnip Rock's photos were created in Photoshop. It's not true. This island is really located on the rocky shores of Lake Huron.


WonderWorks is one of the few upside down houses around town and it's right here in SW Orlando on International Drive. It's a neoclassically designed building except for the obvious fact that the darn thing's upside down. The place is actually an interactive museum with over 100 interactive exhibits including laser tag, a magic show, and dinner show.


This impressive homage to the new U.S. president-elect is the work of talented Cuban-born American artist Jorge Rodriguez-Gerada, who sculpted this gigantic face of Barack Obama using gravel, sand and soil in Barcelona, where he now lives. The massive portrait of Obama's face measures 445 feet long by 264 feet wide and covers nearly 1 hectare of the Barcelona beachfront. The artwork used over 500 tons of donated materials.
