After the Seattle Seahawks won the Arizona Cardinals in the American NFL game in January 2016, the Seahawks Official Twitter told the players that they shared joy in the locker room.


When this picture is processed by a malicious person into a photograph "a player is burning the American Star-Spangled Banner" picture, it diffuses quickly through the SNS and seems to have made a great flame. With the progress of design tools such as Photoshop, such unfortunate events have occurred for a long time.


In such a digital age, the method of Digital Trends recommendation is as follows to see whether there is photography processing (Photoshopping) with a digital tool such as Phothoshop.

◆ 1: Watch well
The first thing we need is "to look thoroughly". Although Photoshopping itself can be called "art", it is technically difficult to let another material into the photo as if it naturally adapts, and it should be coarse.

◆ 2: Stop by thinking once
The structure of the human brain is not good at thinking that "what you see may not be reality" is poor, especially in pictures than in pictures this trend is strong. Digital Trends says that instead of reacting immediately when looking at strange pictures, it is important to question the picture and see it critically. Once you have settled down and looked at with critical eyes, you can easily notice that Seahawks' pictures "there is no smoke that should be there".


◆ 3: Watch "Edge"
It is difficult to cut objects, especially at the "edge (edge)" part. If you enlarge the picture of the problem and look at the edge and there is a sharp jaggar, it means that another material has been pasted.

◆ 4: Unnatural "light"
Digital Trends notes that one of the most difficult things when laminating two separate images is "to fit the light". With this as the opposite, if you can locate the shadow to locate the light source and find the unnatural shadow from that light source, you can see forgery. For example, focusing on the shadow of a person's nose is one way. However, because there are multiple lights from different light sources in the room, it seems difficult to find unnatural light.

In Sea Hawks counterfeit photography, the player's torso with the Stars and Stripes flag is shadowed though it is near the light source called the burning flag, so it can be determined as unnatural light.


◆ 5: Low quality images
It is very advantageous that the picture is low resolution to hide the coarse of Photoshopping. However, as high-speed Internet communication spreads, it is rare that low resolution moving images are uploaded, so you should doubt that photos with low resolution are not processed.

◆ 6: Photographs shaking feelings
In the research, it turns out that people are easy to share contents when emotions of anger and sorrow appear. And those who make counterfeit images in Photoshopping tend to enjoy their own "works" spreading. For this reason Digital Trends says that many of counterfeit images are often photographs that cause anger and sadness.

Since the feelings of anger and sadness tend to hinder "seeing with critical eyes", a more prudent judgment is sought to ascertain the truth when emotions shake.

◆ 7: Utilizing image search
People trying to process photos rarely take pictures of all the materials themselves, and often doing counterfeiting by pulling the material from the web. If you encounter a suspicious image, "Google image searchBy using ", you may be able to find the original image and judge it as fake.


◆ 8: Watch metadata
Metadata may be embedded in the image file, and "metapicz.comIt is possible to display metadata using services such as. Although it is possible to process the data itself such as Exif, even if it can not fix the truth alone, there are times when it can be determined that it is fake.

◆ 9: Use fact check maker
If you can not verify the authenticity of the photograph yourself, it is also effective to check whether a third party checks the facts. Since "Fake News" became a social problem, "Snopes.comThere is also a site that checks and reports whether it is a fact or not as in "You are borrowing the wisdom of someone who wondered earlier than yourself.
