A new head-scratching photo of President Biden: This photo appears to be a little wonky to some...but to me it is an issue with the lens used and the proximity to the subject matter...

This photo appears to be a little wonky to some...but to me it is an issue with the lens used and the proximity to the subject matter that explains it. How about you?

Okay...what, exactly, is photoshopped? I would think it would be photoshopped to look normal...but, then again, this is "Beijing" Biden we're talking about. Maybe this is the way his subscribers see him all the time? All kidding aside, this must be a wide angle lens given the space constraints...

Discuss.

Photoshopped, the Biden’s are out of proportion to the Carters. Notice how much larger their heads are compared to the Carters.

Maybe he's been working out

Plus, zoom in on Biden's right jacket sleeve, looks wonky against the white sleeve.

Even Biden's useless team could come up with better photoshopping that that.

Just looks like a wide angle lens to me. I guess about 10mm. I imagine the camera was less than a foot back from the older guys feet (which you will notice look huge). Crappy photo, but, if the photographer didn't have more space what else could they do?

Since you’re new to the forum, let me just gently point out that political comments belong in the attic section, not in the chit chat or main photography sections please.

It's all about posture and wide angle lenses. Look just at their heads and it makes quite a bit more sense.

Well if I'm not even allowed to criticise the president's press/PR team here then maybe photos of corrupt senile kiddy sniffers and the bestest doctors in the whole world should have been posted in the attic to start with.

Oh, your allowed, when the posts are in the Attic, where political garbage belongs.
This thread will get moved there....

The discussion COULD be about the photo itself, and whether or not it is photo shopped, not caring WHO is in the photo, without getting politics involved. But some people can't do that and have to make it political.

And that's what forces threads to the Attic.

Discussing doctors is usually not political.
