This message follows up the thread in Diving Bonaire: Why are there no sharks? to comments made about the "realness" of the shark image I posted there. Seems more appropriate here.

Nice footage of the shark. I'm guessing that the digital artifacting present on the photo due mainly because it was a capture off the video (which make it quite low res) may have led people to believe it was fake. But you certainly showed them that it was not.

First, the question of "How do you think I "faked" it?". I'm assuming you're asking this question with your context being that you know you saw the shark and have video to prove it. Without the video footage as proof (which was the context of the previous thread), one could easily create a fictional scenario using Photoshop, taking two photos and merging them in an almost-believable fashion. See, for example, this edited photo:

Ok, asuming you wouldn't go to so much trouble of editing a fake video just for a laugh... I had just the one picture to go by. What you didn't tell was that it was a video capture. The quality of that combined with the fact that you overdid the sharpening a bit gave me the impression that, like Brian described, you layered the shark on the background.
