This is an Oriental Shorthair. What will they do next!?
There is a lot of extreme breeding but this is not an example. This is the result of simple photoshopping. I wanted to see if it was as easy as I thought it would be and it was.
I chose a photo by Helmi of a cat that already had a very long neck. The longest I had seen as it happens. I created three portions and spliced them together then concealed the joins by cloning (copying an unblemished part and placing that across the defective part) and publishing at a lowish resolution. Here are the parts:
Here is the original:
This handsome cat illustrates a page on the different head shapes of cats. The peculiar part of this exercise is that I think this cat has the world’s longest neck without photoshopping 😉
That was made back when Sealy had undergone surgery and his neck fur had been shaved. Thought you’d like it 🙂
LOL. Nice one Elisa. Really funky.
Sealy can stretch his neck really long when he’s scoping out food 🙂
Absolutely Rudolph, it is quite easy to fake photos even in small ways like changing eye color or making eyes a deeper color or changing the coat color etc. There are a lot of small, less obvious things, one can do that deceive the viewer. It can hard to tell because we are getting used to more extreme images.
I am no good at fakery, obviously! I might try something else for your appraisal.
