If you want total authenticity then use film and ask to see the negatives.

And you detect use of a copy-stand how?

no i dont work for them. I just post from a list of sites i visit everyday. Also, i saw this at boing boing as well, but i figured someone had already posted about it here. When i got on tonight, i saw the story again, this time on petapixel and decided to post.

Dude, do you work for petapixel or something? I noticed the guy who runs that site is also named Michael and every post you make here seems to have a link to their website. I saw that story on Boing Boing couple of days ago. If you want total authenticity then use film and ask to see the negatives.

If anything, the photoshopped images are funny.
