I choose the Barack Obama picture with him smoking. They flipped the picture and added the cigarette near his mounth. i chose "fake smoke over Beirut". in this photo the hoax there appears to have intense and dark clouds of smoke over the city after the Isreali attaks in 2006. the way this extra smoke was created, was through the cloning tool. the photographer took a section that was dark and moved around to make the rest of the area dark like it. the cloning tool allows the new picture to be blended to make it look natural which gave the effect that the picture truely had that much smoke.

I chose "I can promise, this will never get done." This picture shows George W. Bush attempting to complete a rubik's cube. The rubik's cube was not photoshopped in. A lookalike was used to put President Bush in it.

I chose the picture "ot What You Want To See." In this picture a water spout illuminated by a bolt of lightening approaching an oil rig. This was actually two different pictures merged together. The lighting and waterspout picture was taken at a differint time than the oil rig picture. It was falsely labeled and should have said "When the lightning flashes, this is not what you want to see."

The paper tiger hoax was my favorite. In order to get money for finding the extinct South China tiger, Zhenglong, a poor farmer, cut out a picture of the rare tiger from a magazine and photographed it in the trees.

I picked the fake picture of the tornado with the lightning strike heading for an oil rig. This picture was most likely faked by fusing 2 pictures together and deleting the background of the overlayed picture. This caould be easily done in photoshop or even illustrator.
