One of 'em received some obviously remarkable Photoshop work. But I ain't givin' away the answer just yet.

A. It's just too perfect. Or perhaps I've taken the bait.

I have spent time last night and again today trying to figure this out. If I had never seen the video of Aviary converting a picture of Hillary Clinton into a lizard based alien (see video here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JlkAR9zNmaU ) I would have selected A. But, since I saw the Aviary demo, I am going to say B.

A.
Older lady is the original. I'm correct. No need to post the answer.
If I'm wrong, I'll eat my mouse.

"B" (the photo of the woman on the right) was seriously retouched. That's right, the older woman doesn't really exist. She was created by the amazing photo retoucher Amy Dresser.
Peter: You did indeed take the bait.
David: It seems Aviary aficionados have an unfair advantage.
Chuck: Please don't do anything risky with that mouse.

You're wrong.
Don't believe everything you read (or see) on the web.

Chuck: Nice research job. I went to the site. I think you may be right, but just to be sure, I emailed Amy and asked her to add a comment. Now we wait.

I'm just glad you told me that I didn't have to eat my mouse. Because if I had, I wouldn't've been able to 'mouse over' the image for the correct answer ...

I received this email message today from Amy Dresser:
The photo of the older looking woman is the original.
I apologize for the error. Chuck: Thank you for doing the digging I should have done before publishing the post after reading those blogs.

You can't fool Mother Nature.
Or Chuck.

Want you to take photos of myself and daughter and retouch mine. Great job!
