3 Ways to Spot a Photoshopped Coral

Mr. Saltwater Tank headed down to World Wide Corals to talk to Chris Turnier, professional photographer and manager of WWC’s web department. In the video below, they discuss a question we’d all like to know: How can I tell if a coral photo has been photoshopped?

The whole video is worth a watch, but he says to look for three things in particular:

  1. Colors that are so intense you have a hard time looking at them
  2. Colors that blend together instead of being clear and distinguishable
  3. A plug that doesn’t look like a plug should look
