Hi Dirk

>Does this photo look legit to experts on this list? Please email me your opinions on the photo; thank you in advance.


I am no photography expert, but the image looks photo-shoped to me

In Australia the sun rises in the East and sets in the West,

now if the Sun is the object in the photo on the left then why at 6:30pm AEST would the Sun be setting in the East?

I think the photo is a fake

Kind Regards
