Is this pic real or computer-generated?

[HamburgerBoy]

For being somewhat cloudy it sure looks colorful. Something about the streetlights looks a little fake as well... the way the glass part looks kind of blurry.

Oooo, good point.

Unless NY has the cleanest streets in the world, it's CG.

 

[pray4mojo]

Looks real but funky. It could be from compression loss or something.

 

[Minjin]

Well, if its CG, they programmed in soot on the back of the busses. You'd think they would have just made the road a little dirty.

2. the changes in elevation are accurate to an extent the likes of which i have never seen in CGI. Every seen a raised portion of the road done well? Me wither.

3. the number of objects that would be needed to realistically create those trees is somethign that I have never seen before.

1. Easy. Render at 4x this resolution, scale it down. You'll get that effect.
2. That's easy to do too. If you can box model a character, you can put a few dents in a road.
3. I believe they have scripts that do stuff like that. CGI hair anyone?

Interesting?

Looks rendered to me.

The right side is a bike/walking lane. And it's real.

So if it was a real pic, and they were selling luxury apartments from that address, don't you think they'd have a real website?

Maybe if you got the site URL right it would work?

Ha. Nice call. Looks like an S that was cut off by a pole or something like the m in com is.

 

[YOyoYOhowsDAjello]

The building exists

EDIT: oh, too late

 

[BrokenVisage]

Definately CG.

 

[Inspector Jihad]

its real...check the cracks in the shoulder line

 

[loup garou]

Christ, it's real. I'll PM bmdoobiew and tami and get them to enlighten you maroons.

 

[TekViper]

Its physchology, once people are told that something might be different, they see it in their minds differently and read too much into it.

As I have said before, its real.

The building does exist, but someone could of CGed that pic.

 

[DAGTA]

Real. What made it look computer generated to me at first is how clean the streets are. I expected some litter.

 

[Udel]

Fake, fake, fake.

 

[Crescent13]

CG I believe. There is no wear, or signs of aging, or dirt, on anything. Too perfect to be real.
