Default Plane crashes into tree

CAVEAT!! This applies to the airplane on the roof, not in the tree.

Photoshopped as well, of course.

I wouldn't think so.


I'm pretty sure it was not photoshopped. Here's why:

1. The anti-aliasing on diagonal edges, especially where part of the
aircraft and part of the building form an acute triangle, is consistent.
The pixel areas are the same, and the color blends are uniform.
2. I fiddled with the contrast to look deep into the shadows where
the aircraft and the roof merge and there is a strand of wire or rope that
loops around the left main gear, around the leading edge, back across the
flap at the wing root and crosses under the fuselage. Entirely too much
detail for a photoshopper to do, and the anti-aliasing is again, too
consistent for the aircraft to have been plugged in as an overlay.

I'll bet dinner for two in any restaurant of your choice within ten
miles of L72 that this photo is valid. [Transportation not included.]
