best photos of 2003 Hurry kids! Before it's slashdotted silly!
  • I like the shark. M'whay.
  • Those are pretty wild. I love the first and second the most. In this age of computer effects I am having a hard time convincing myself that the lightning one is for real, but I guess it is.
  • What, did the shark tear that guy's pants off or something?
  • Everybody sing! "He's got the whoooooole sun in his haaaands..."
  • Amazing shot of lightningbolt, and the one from the tanker looks very ominous.
  • Assuming nothing except judicious color levelling, first and third, hands down.
  • Two of those images have Snopes histories: the "shark" and the storm. That Mt. Fuji pic is incredible.
  • Good catch (dangit I wondered). However, Snopes just says the "shark" is a dolphin and the storm isn't Hurricane Isabel. (As opposed to both of them being photoshopped from Micro$oft Clip Art and "Ziggy" comics.)
  • If sharks had their own web site that surfer would be on Best Snacks of 2003.
  • Hubby reckons he's seen the ship one on a "Despair" demotivator poster. He was wrong, though. It's the 'shark'.
  • I'll step into the role of prick here and impudently declare that I think they're all photoshopped !! I don't mind though :-)
  • Running too many photoshop filters/clones/layers on a single image gives me a headache...
  • Great link! It's not actually a shark, though.
  • Duh...sorry, what Patsee said above.
  • Ah, another dead main link. Enjoyed some of the other ones, especially as Snopes is always good to be reaquainted with.
