No match
I had to splice 7 images together to get this full view. Final size was over 8000 x 5500 pixels. What a scene it was.

I can see this as being real. Sometimes God's creation is so incredible it's overwhelming. It's a gorgeous picture- thanks for sharing it!

In truth, when I first saw your photo composition, It made me feel rather nostalgic. True it is very nice and (hu-hum) never mind how it was made or how realistic it looks-remember kids sometimes it IS the point of digital imaging and montages. It's what brings the art in artistic (duh.) It made me remember the good old days of THAMES television productions when the logo popped out of the river Thames NO not an ocean not a large body of water-surely not. No hard feelings to the deadbeat experts--NO, NO JUST KIDDING. Congrats, nice work. To convince you, take a look at this video montage on youtube esp. the first 30 seconds.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRHEWBJe-QM

It's too beautiful to be true but it is. Salar de Uyuni, Bolivia, right? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNF_P281Uu4

In case this image is not real, this does not make me less happy while viewing it. <p>However, what would make me less happy is that, in case it is real, I was not there to see it... <p>Please, be careful not to lose the point. By the way, where was the picture taken?

I've seen the Salar d'Uyuni in Bolivia after rainfall, and this is exactly how it looks. The Salar d'Uyuni is the biggest salt flat in the world, and rain sits about an inch deep and creates this mirror effect. Don't be so sceptical in the future, this is a stunning photo of a very real place.

Think outside the box a little... What if you held a sheet of glass (or mirror) and mounted your camera at the very end of it? Don't you think it'd be possible to get an effect like this? Who says it's a body of water?

Thank you "fuqueue"! (nice name btw ;)) I'm glad someone is in agreement with me finally. This has to be fake. Well fake in the sense that the scene has been manipulated more so than just splicing.

nope, it's definitely not real. look at the way the clouds look right above the horizon of the water; you will never see a horizon with clouds looking like that - the depth perception is way off. they would be going off in the distance, not just cut off where he decided to draw the horizon and make the reflection. good photoshop tho

It looks like it could be a reflection off the roof of a shiny car hood. Bravo.

"That is actually how the scene looked. That's the real image. The only splicing I did was for increased resolution and viewing angle." Sorry to be skeptical. But there's something awfully fake looking about the clouds at the horizon and the glassiness of the water. I'm assuming this is supposed to be the ocean (or a big enough lake that the horizon is just more water). If that's the case, I've never known a body of water that big to be so glassy. It's usually at least a little wavy which yields enough diffraction in the reflection of the sky. Meh.

I think you all are missing the point. =) I didn't splice images together that weren't supposed to go together. That is actually how the scene looked. That's the real image. The only splicing I did was for increased resolution and viewing angle. Sometimes what's real doesn't look real. =) Thanks anyway for all the interest!
