"I actually know EXACTLY to the meter where this was taken. I stopped to rescue a baby hummingbird under that big tree on the right :-)"

Actually, this location does not exist. It's a composite of 10+ shots taken in two different cities.

Hahahaha. LA is pretty much in the desert so I am going to guess real, but I'm probably wrong.

ROFL. One big soap opera.

I don't know the area, so I have no way of knowing if this is real or not. If two Photos have been blended/merged, it was done very well. I'm going to guess REAL.

I can imagine that these hills got snakes.
The sign on the hill looks genuine as well
So I would think this is a genuine photograph

I am pretty sure I see "it." Is it under the left tree to the left of the path? I'm either crazy, or it's really subtle or both. (The shadow is the tongue?)

Real, probably. Shadows feel a little off. Changing my mind - not real. Composit the sigh and background with a different foreground trail?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 09/17/2011 01:39:06 PM
real? But nice social commentary :)

hmmm is the sign real or not, I'd guess not, something just doesn't look right to my eye although the shrub color in the holes of the post looks right. I think it's that the path is curving and the sign seems like it would be right in the middle of the path and at an above normal height. Not much else holding my interest in the picture.

Well this is definitely my favorite so far...i like stuff that actually has some kind of message.

Real with some processing errors in foreground.
