Secondlygo out and spray liquid in an arc like that, and you'll see that it breaks up into globules very quickly after leaving the nozzle, the smaller the flow the larger the gap between the packets of fluid too, yet the liquid seems to be describing a complete arc.
the kids shorts/penis/elbow are mighty suspicious too. Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out.
What makes me think it's at least plausible is that there are no obvious fringes around the kid's hair - cutting and pasting hair is always interesting in Photoshop - and the light looks believable. Often when you try to montage two scenes they're lit from completely different angles, and which doesn't seem to be true here.
Then again you're right about the splashes, and the aim is possibly a little too perfect.
So I'd say it's open - could be either.
The sheer accuracy of hitting the centre of the helmet is a bit dubious though I agree Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out.
Thank got someone gets it. It just does not matter. Capitalism searches out the darkest corners of human potential, and mainlines them.
Second, as others have mentioned, there's no splash on the helmet-top.
Third, look at how the kid is standing; the boy's feet are placed at such an angle that it's highly improbable that he'd be able to pee outward at the angle that the stream would have to take in order to hit the soldier's head. He'd have to be peeing sideways.
At any rate, now I found that the image first spread on the web during April 2003, the earliest I found so far is 6 April 2003 in What Really Happened. *Lunatic*, n. One whose delusions are out of fashion.
Of course the hole point of the picture is obvious No matter what weapon, nationality or composed image: this picture expresses what a lot of people think about war. The struggle of man against tyranny is the struggle of memory against forgetting.(Kundera)
Of course the hole point of the picture is obvious
If I was looking for a point of the picture, I'd say it was far more likely to be a piece of pro-intifada propaganda from the 90's Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out.
