People out here downvoting the implication that this is an artifical image. AI or poor photoshop, this is shaping up to be a real reddit moment.
yeah it's definitely (poorly) upscaled by AI but originally it was a real picture
Look at the other pictures posted in this comment thread. The picture OP used was a particularly terrible version of it for some reason, there are other versions that don't look nearly as bad.
Yeah so apparently it's a real picture taken quite some time ago that has been upscaled. It looks absolutely horrendous though and 100% fake, especially the parts you highlighted. I guess I'm not terminally online enough to recognize a repost or something, but weirdly enough I'm OK with that.
