whoever took the pic coulda lifted the cover off...geeze

If i didn't know any better, i'd say they were lemmings.

:lol2:

Oh dear! Poor Mom! She lost all but one. I hope the person who took that picture helped get them out or got someone to get them out.

That's horrible. I hope someone lifted the grate up. :frown:

Looks fake...

its sad but I laughed im sorry

i doubt its real, it may be, but even if it is, i doubt the guy watching helped.

Looks fake...
That's kinda what I thought after looking at it again. It just doesn't look right.

iys def fake, just look how clear the color is on the duck compared to the rest of the background, idk its deffinatly fake though. got a good laugh. :smile:

Quick! Someone get the bridge-builder lemming!

Too late for that, they needed the parachuters.

Dumb ducks..... However chances are the ducklings are still on the other side of the drain in the last picture......

Seems mean, but I laughed. :evillol: But, that's just me.

Yea, I'm evil too.

Ugh that's shitty...

I'm all depressed again now. Thanks a bunch. :disappoin

Somebody could've gotten them out; people are cruel:disappoin

Im with J Swigz and RacemySS_454

looking at the ducks feet on the grate doesnt look right; one heck of a photoshop job tho

the duckling in the last pic is significantly larger than those in the first pic...

As a fake, its pretty good. As a joke, its pretty bad.

Did anyone notice the top right corners of picture 2 and 3? wtf are those? also notice in picture 2, theres a reflection of the grate, but no duck reflection.

pic 2 is a bumper, and pic 3 is the exhaust tip

Any AF vet remember this pic from long ago???

It's a repost and if I recall, fake, but eh, I kind of laughed, felt wrong but laughed. :cwm27:

that is so sad....:(

if you look at the babies, there is a yellow hue around them, but not anything else. kinda like the were shadowed, but with yellow.

well, in the first pic there's 6 babies, then as they start to cross there's only 5, so I guess one ran ahead and fell in already? lol then I guess the rest followed....who knows lol

haha...thats great

GOt duxks living in my pool area. A mallard and a duck, laid eggs, in the corner of the house before the fence. Theyve been sitting at the edge of the pool, vigilant of any threat to their nest. I do hope my dog doesnt get them.

Too late for that, they needed the parachuters.



I always perfered to just blow them all up :evillol:

haha thats hilarious sorry its mean but so damn funny

doesn't look photoshopped at all to me? if anything the camera view is just cutting off the other ducklings that decided to not cross and then the mother turned around to look at them. the fact that the camera man zoomed in and cut out half the scene that was originally there gives the illusion that all but one of the babies fell in.


PS that is not yellow shadowing... thats what baby ducks look like. they are a little fluffy and its usually yellow. as they age the fluff gets replaced with brown feathers.


edit: actually dukegirl has a point... maybe they did take the plunge? there goes my theory.

whoever pointed it out is right. there is no reflection of the duck in the chrome bumper in picture two. the ducks didn't fall in, they were never there.

:ylsuper: Good eye

Looks like most of us need to pay more attention next time a photo like this comes up. With that said we got :owned:

I have a friend who does a lot of photoshopping. He's quick to point out that it is often things that aren't there that give a picture away. so instead of looking for pixelation (which can be hidden if you're excellent at PS[I'm not]) I look for a missing shadow, or in this case, a missing reflection.

I noticed it on my own, yeah, but don't forget someone else pointed it out before I even opened this thread.

About the reflection, you'll notice that the "grate" is actually 2 grates side by side. The relection in the bumper is showing the grate to our left, whereas the ducks are on the right hand grate. You can see the edge of it the photo (please remember this is a reflection and would appear backwards) also, the edge of the right hand grate has grass clippings on it, which isn't seen on the relection.

As to the remaining duckling looking bigger in the last photo? Well so does the mother, they're closer to the camera :)

The picture doesn't look photoshopped to me (but I'm certainly no expert) but that doesn't mean it wasn't set up like Knorwj mentioned.

No doubt that all the babies are safe and sound, since anyone taking pictures of cute, fuzzy little ducks in the first place would probly spend the time trying to get them out if they did, indeed, fall in the gutter.
