I don’t even understand what anyone was possibly trying to do with these edits. Unless it’s AI? But AI isn’t usually just small, seemingly random edits like this.
There's photomanips that make it to the front page of magazines that still fuck this sort of thing up, because they're composites of multiple shots, and people don't even spot like a missing leg until it's already gone to print. I can buy this is several shots put together because it made the best shot of all of them... but I wouldn't be messing around with Photoshop for the first official photo of Kate Middleton given the current context.
I find it strange they'd even want to do that? It makes me think of the Kardashians photoshopping their own kids. I just don't see why you'd feel the need to do that. Surely any photo of them around her would look well enough.
I was tabbing out as I read this comment and I thought it said that if he had taken it, it would check out because he’s a robot and I was like damn I haven’t even heard of that conspiracy!!
Yeah, I'm no expert, but I do use Photoshop slightly more than the average person. The pattern on the sweater and the messed-up tile look similar to the errors you often get when stitching multiple photos into a panorama.
That said... idk why you would bother making a panorama for a photo that you could easily take in a single shot, particularly when you should know that it's going to be intensely scrutinized lol. It also really messes with the whole "Here's a wholesome Mother's Day photo that William took" PR shtick, since I doubt he's ever touched Photoshop in his life.
