Mistakes happen to everyone, but when you are Nikon, one of the most prestigious brands in the world, and has 10 million fans on Facebook, you know you’re in trouble when wrong.
All It began when Nikon announced it had decided to give a prize for a photo of Chay Yu Wei, for having “taken a plane in mid-air.” The problem was that there was no plane in the original photo.
The photo was edited so badly that it was possible to see the image manipulation in any big screen. Not to mention that Nikon should have just checked with the “curves” tool or “levels” in Photoshop. When it seemed things could not get worse, someone posted the photographer’s own answer: to the question “How long have you waited for the plane?” He replied “Not much time! I was lucky! Thank you! “.
This is the photo for which Nikon gave the award. Quite impressive …
… if not false. Just changing the picture of the levels in Photoshop you can see immediately that it is “photoshopped”
The photographer said he did not wait” too long “for the plane. “I was lucky,” wrote
But it was too late …
… until Darth Vader came into play. The force is strong in Internet!
” Totally not photoshopped! I have the same lens! “
Here, another aircraft was spotted
little did Wei who expected a little more could catch Godzilla
seems legitimate
“Little did he know that it would take a bride in the air”
” 007 chanced upon a set of stairs looking for a Martini “
“who knew that I could capture Van Damme doing a complete opening up there”
photographer fainted after taking the photo
Wait, what is this?
?
If you look Mcclane John, John Mcclane stares back
Nikon should seriously consider a new award for the best photoshopped image among these. The winner gets a camera and at least it will be an effort to make viral campaign
has never been so easy to find Wally
After a while Nikon answered and admitted his mistake
