why has she not got a shadow? photo shop? cant imagion it would be but still abit weird!

Laurence-CE (Sep 28, 2009 at 11:50)

Yeah photoshop...she is out of proportion and the way the rest of the light is she should either be lit up by the sun...or have a shadow...BUT STILL Razz

made me laugh!

martin-kennedy (Sep 29, 2009 at 13:35)

She's in the shade..

rgy1993 (Oct 1, 2009 at 2:04)

guys honestly think about it... do you really believe we would photoshop a photgraph THAT easy to set up...

please have a look at 2 other photos we took that day
http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/4091540/ and http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/4062667/
just makes absolutely no sense to photoshop when the girl is right there for 2 other shots haha
before you decide in your head that this particular one is photoshopped..

Laurence-CE (Oct 1, 2009 at 3:56)

I retract my statement Razz

B1LL15 (Oct 16, 2009 at 18:58)

dave6797, there is another word for 'mini women,' they can also be called jail bate. Razz

bikerali (Oct 17, 2009 at 5:14)

am sorry but that just doesnt make sense :S

what doesn't make sense, my comment, or someone else's?

I can see the shadow of her leg, and she really looks like a mannakin.

Total PS job...unless your girl is a dwarf!

Thrillride (Feb 16, 2010 at 8:12)

dude, shes asian. Asian girls are like the smallest thy can get....Dope shot

LiamGiles94 (Dec 28, 2010 at 2:48)

If you look closely shes not in the light properly, so therefore no shadow will be cast, you can see this clearly by looking at her arm and her leg which is lite up a bit by the sun and this shadow is over lapped by the rider.

Mooney10 (Jan 10, 2011 at 14:47)

and there is actually a shadow coming from her left foot/leg

pbrider (Jan 27, 2011 at 19:13)

Thats not true Thrill ride... Pygmys and Midgets both can be smaller than asians.... but a pygmy asian midget would be off the hook...

Thrillride (Jan 28, 2011 at 7:17)

lol, ok ya got me

Session1984 (Jan 29, 2011 at 18:20)

I would buy one.

MattCollettPhoto (Sep 26, 2011 at 8:54)

Deffo not a PS, the sunlight is directly above, the rider is on his side to the sun. She is also in a lot of his/bowls shade, but you can see the sun hitting her hair, and her leg. She isn't out of proportion either... my gf is 5 ft tall (and before you ask she is not a kid, she is 21 and she isn't a dwarf or a midget either!) :-)

On second inspection, the shadow of her leg is sharper than his shadow (could just be because she is closer to the ground?)

And, you can see the sun hitting her arm, surely this should be shadowed by the rider?

I'm confused!

benjsing (Sep 30, 2009 at 3:56)

number 1- shit has not shadow i now you are going to say she is in the shadow of the bowl and she want have one

the sun was directly over head and she's standing in an over-vert pocket.

number 2 - the guys shadow on the bike is going thought her??? tell me how that works she would have blocked half of his shadow if she was standing there go out side and test in if you like

I'm on the over-vert part with the sun above me therefore my shadow has been cast over her

number 3- unless she is the small chick going around she is so out of proportion its not fun

She's 5'2 and I'm 6'4 so of course there's going to be a size difference
why would I photoshop my own girlfriend into a photo? haha

rgy1993 (Sep 30, 2009 at 4:21)

actually with number 2 mr boxhead just proved his own stupidity =P

basically saying if two people are in the way of each other.. and you cast a light on them which goes on to a wall.. their shadows will not overlap?
physics is one of the simple joys of life my friend Razz

chrris (Oct 1, 2009 at 18:03)

Well your wright but theres also another factor Mr. dumbass didn't look at.
If you look,
The bowl line of shade cuts off around her feet, so there would only be a shadow of her feet.
because there is no sun light on her therefor you wont see that in a shadow.
and if you do look you can see the shawdow of her leg, If you look at the shadow, you see the guys arms and the bars, but on odd big like in the middle,
that's shaped exactly like her leg. in essence this isn't photoshopped and would be a waste of time to photoshop.

cthorpe (Nov 16, 2009 at 18:09)

haha this photoshop fight will go forever. i believe its real. any logical person can tell it is. the shadows are correct, one shadow over another still equals a shadow. RGY you might as well give up. who cares what people say on the internet.

rgy1993 (Nov 19, 2009 at 15:30)

yeeeh i gave up arguing.... unfortunately pinkbike is now filled with little 12 year old shits that all seem to be experts on photography and photoshop now... so i guess they can all tell a doctored photo from a real one... ah well... haha

cthorpe (Nov 19, 2009 at 15:59)

haha agreed! but hey, your midget mannakin of a girlfriend looks real to me hahaha

rgy1993 (Nov 20, 2009 at 1:17)

haha tis not my girlfriend...
i'm the one that took the photograph, her boyfriend is the guy in this photo haha.
she's quite small as she's like half asian only like 5 foot tall, i still don't get why this photo turned out like this though haha she looks perfectly normal in the rest of them.. Razz

bikeracer28 (Dec 3, 2010 at 20:13)

ok, in know its not photoshopped and i know there is a shadow. but! its really confusing, how come her shadow isnt bigger. like, look at the guys shadow, its so much bigger. i dont get it. do we have a math wiz on here who remembers the formula for show stuff.

[Reply]

sarcasm (Sep 30, 2009 at 6:44)

Mr Boxhead, you're kinda dumb, i was there, it's not shopped, go on write a thesis on this if you want too so badly.

kona-got-ran-over (Oct 2, 2009 at 17:49)

she doesnt have a shadow

shes in the f*ckin shadow from the bowl now everyone shut up abt the damn photoshop she obviously wasnt f*ckin photoshopped in goddamn

[Reply]

psyickphuk (Oct 19, 2009 at 11:03)

It's obviously real. What everyone who thinks it's photoshopped is really saying is since she's fit she can't possibly be your girlfriend Smile

Maybe a few pics of her less clothed would help sway them...?

[Reply]

oskie (Sep 30, 2009 at 6:12)

i know the dude, (no offence to him) he sucks dick at photoshop.
and check out the girl's left leg, im pretty sure thers a shadow right there.

all that aside. sick shot Smile

seraph (Nov 30, 2010 at 22:22)

Actually guys, the girl's left leg is casting a shadow on the ground. It's pretty easy to see.

And of course the rider looks bigger cause he's 6 4' or something, huge.

ye and to be fair, if he's got 2 other photos with her in the photo why would he need to photoshop her into this photo ??

MattCollettPhoto (Sep 28, 2011 at 9:34)

I don't know why you are making a big deal about the shadow? If you hold one hand out to make a shadow, then put your other hand on top of it, you don't get two shadows... you get one merged shadow which is what is on the floor is it not?
