This is Yosemite? Seriously?

We’ve all seen those really bad Photoshopped photos where the shark is eating the man or Lindsay Lohan is missing a leg. In my opinion they hold no candle to this wonderfully Photoshopped image of the waterfalls in Yosemite that was part of a press release by the Oakhurst Chamber of Commerce trying to attract visitors to the area.

To the Oakhurst Chamber of Commerce: If you guys want to hire a good graphic designer I am available. Call me (209) 846-2112.

    LOL, what’s really funny is the itty bitty Bridalveil Falls next to the onslaught of that other thing. Run from the flood!

    Seriously? I find it kind of insulting on Yosemite’s behalf!

    Wow. This is tacky. Such rubbish is better suited for amusement parks. Oakhurst CC, I’m disappointed. Is this blog alone not enough of a collection of spectacular, true, photos of Yosemite and all it’s grandeur? Of all the places on earth that don’t need photoshopping to attract people, Yose is #1.
    Seriously, send that kid back to community college graphics school.

    Honest. It looked exactly like that, I’ve got the RAW file to prove it.

    lol

    Is the septic tank system at Bridalveil campground overflowing again?

    With falls like those two, I think it is time to just turn off the spigot on Bridal Veil. (You can barely see it in the background anyway…)

    The real question is, where do all the tourists fit?

    HAHAHAHA that is one bad Photoshop job. Looks like those two waterfalls have more water then the entire park’s water features combined, yet no mist at the bottom? Hmmm…

    That is hilarious – it’s not even to scale. The waterfalls are huge compared to the mountains in the background.

    BTW, That fall on the left is now the tallest in the world! Approximately 3,600′. Whoo Hooo!

    Well…it didn’t look like that when we visited!

    I just wonder why on Earth would they NEED to use a photoshopped image?! Surely they could have got any number of images that were fantastic without having to resort to that.
