Photograph or Computer Render?

Postby Aida » Wed Aug 29, 2012 10:47 am

In case you haven't seen it yet: Here's something I found quite interesting in today's Photodex Blog:

"Double Take: Photograph or Computer Render?"
http://www.slideshowblog.com/2012/08/do ... er-render/

I must say I failed the little quiz: I couldn't tell which of the two images presented was a real photograph and which one was computer generated.

If you compare back and forth now that you know which is which, you can see that the computer-generated image is just plain too perfect. Reality isn't like that.
