Can you spot the bird?

Isn't there debate in the community that this photo was actually altered and that he has been lying about it?

Very good job, if true.

Microsoft bought all the right and even the original physical film (that I guess they would scan to get the best image possible). So I guess then Microsoft would be on it too.

It was shot on Velvia slide film. Knowing that emulsion you either expose it just right and it looks gorgeous or you over/underexpose and the details are gone and can’t be brought back.

I would love to see the actual negative and the other shots he took at that location.

I work in the refurb department of an e-waste recycling company. I take pictures of monitors and TVs showing Bliss, and I test printers with it. It has bright spots, dark spots, it's colorful, and has plenty of fine detail, making it a decent test picture. Bonus points for being familiar to most people.

Ironically, I only run Linux at work.
