SHORT DESCRIPTION
The image was strongly tilted when uploaded (see previous version), which made me believe that it wasn't "manipulated" other than using certain camera settings. --Elekhh (talk) 05:42, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I noticed the tild. But the way the pic looks is definitely not by certain camera settings. The cam was a Canon eos Rebel xti and this pic was imo photoshopped with some kind of art-filter like "old-photo" for example. --mathias K 06:33, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I do not think so. Maybe saturation and/or contrast have been increased a bit, but if someone had really done some non-standard manipulation why shouldn't he also fix noise and tilt? These two were the most obvious flaws in the first version. H005 20:35, 25 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Furthermore, the description states that the view is from the highway, and if it was taken from a slow moving vehicle that would explain the "artistic" blur of the forground. --Elekhh (talk) 23:24, 25 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
