Left: original AS11-40-5903 (greyscaled/blurred/increased in brightness/don't remember what else i did)
Right: faked pic
IMHO is never a good idea to make comparisons between an original image and an image which has been:
-cropped
-rotated
-blurred
-resized
-saved/converted in jpeg format with all the consequences i.e. jpeg artifacting
-reduced in color depht
-greyscaled
-increased in brightness
-decreased in contrast
-photoshopped
-Who knows what else
All these steps have as consequence important variations of the ref. points, and this means that whatever assestment we would do, it wouldn't be
realistic.
The only variation i'm not able to explain is the black area i pointed with the arrow:
its variation of shape is not easily explainable with ONE of the steps i mentioned, but maybe, with all together...
As said, probably i'm missing something...
