I thought so too, so I took the liberty of reproducing that. Here is what it looks like. Everything stayed too uniform. Nothing like the original.

there is not one thing that anyone can say that will make me change my mind. u cannot bend light to make the head in the back appear to be on the top of the head in the front if the reflection is below the duck. it is against the law of physics. if i have to i can make a diagram to prove it. look at it this way. if you were looking up at the duck from the point of the water where the reflection starts you would see the bottom of the bill and there is no way that you could see the bill in the back over the bill in the front because of them being at the same hight in the picture to begin with. its photoshop all the way.

oh yeah and if it really was true he would have gotten a different angle cause i am positive that the duck would not be sitting perfectly still the whole time. if i saw it i know i would probably have taken a hundred pics of it and eventually got one better than that of the two heads.

This thread went all scientific with all the charts. If you know me, then you know I don't have 1/10th of the skills necessary to Photoshop this. I just figured out how to clone out background a few weeks ago.

Is it real? I will quote the incredibly gay guy from american idol last night. "reality is what you make it, man."

I'm trying to remember which one said that, there were so many incredibly gay dudes on the show last night.

But the water is not flat...it is rippled, causing odd reflection points, right? I'm not sure that I fully understand what you are saying.
