My friends and I were having a debate on whether or not this is fake... I say it is. The stairs do not look convincing...they dont blend in the with terrain, neither does the reflection of the boat in the water. What do you think?  |

Fake.
This was screaming for a poll with options of "Fake" or "Not real".

it looks fake to me. zoom in on the stair, they look airbrushed in. the reflection of the boat is taller than the boat. the building on the right was poorly cut and pasted, leaving a bunch of pixel noise around it. the arch is much fuzzier on the outside edge then the inside.

Pie.
I mean fake, and a pretty bad one. The distortions where the stairs meet the rocks are the dead giveaway.

Oddly enough it's not the stairs texture-repeat, boat/reflection, or archway that first jump out and scream out "fake" to me near as much as... ...the two buildings. Not only are they waaaaaaay too identical, if it was a real picture then either they are held up by invisible steel supports, or this picture was taken minutes before both houses fell into the lagoon!  |

Agreed. The first thing that i looked at and thought was fake was the buildings too, Logan.

Fake. So many indicators of this it's not worth listing them.
But now I want a house liek that, only with an elevator instead of stairs!
