A friend emailed this to me this morning. Perfect timing.

WOW! Quick camera. Probably won't see anything like it soon.

[LongTatLaw]

Thats pretty darn neat!!

That has been on here before. If you look, it has been photoshopped. Pretty easy to see all the clues.

Please explane "photoshop" and explane why?  I do not understand.  Thanks shoe81

Shoe81, it was manipulated using the Photoshop program.

If ya blow the image up there are a few things that come into question:

- If it is indeed the "moment of impact" how come there is blood clear up a portion of the shaft?

- Notice the blood on the opposite leg around the armpit area? How did the buck start bleeding so heavily on that side when the arrow hasn't even penetrated that far yet?

- Some questions pertaining to the pixels around the arrow and the blood. Looks like it was added after the fact.

- Camera speed. That is one heck of a trail camera to catch the arrow that clearly.

  Even with all that being said, I do not know with 100% certainty that it is Photoshopped. After all, I did not take the pic and did not Photoshop it myself. However, I would bet money that it's not authentic. Someone did a great job with the program though!

 This is the one thing that really sucks ass about these sorts of photos today. Some pics we think are authentic turn out to be faked....and it causes us to question almost every fabulous or extraordinary pic that is circulated across the world wide web.

Just my

was the backwoodsboy involved

Damn!!

[backwoods_boy]

HA HA HA HA
no i wasnt involved but i dont think this is an untouched photo.
its just not possible.
but thats my graphic designer opinion. dont want to start an argument.

[Antlershed]

It was proven last time that it is not photoshopped.

[backwoods_boy]

proven huh
oh ok then my mistake. :-)
lets not get into this again lol
who cares anyways its still cool

[Antlershed]

I'm looking for the thread but I can't find it. There was a really long discussion about it. No arguing here 

[Hoytstaffshooter83]

I think it could be real, if he shot it away from the camera and it jumped in front of it after the shot, all of that is entirely possible, if so thats awesome for sure

[M_ray]

To me it looks to be dead laying on the ground the eyes don't look right! look at the blood on the body ... since when does the blood on impact defy gravity and lay perfectly on the body towards the sky like it does after you find your animal lying on it's side?  On impact the blood hasn't the time to smear perfectly on the body or in the armpit in that fashion. I have seen and reviewed impact shots in slow motion several times and not once did it look like this, at that speed it usally looks like a pin hole right at impact. You are going to have to try pretty hard to convince me this is real!

Even if it is photoshoped it is a cool picture!

[BigRedThing]

There is no doubt in my mind that this is the work of Chuck Norris. 

[blindpig]

Without a doubt one of the best shots ever.
