If I ever go back to the Czech Republic, I should visit a lot of bars...

Really terrible Photoshop work, Donna! Not CMNF at all.

I disagree.
I don't believe it is photoshopped.
A flash was used, but that's it.

The pics were Photoshopped. The woman's shadows don't follow the contours of the objects on which they were cast.

I'm sorry. You guys are wrong. This one wasn't photoshopped. The trick is the pixelation of both the girl and either guy next to her and the table itself are, for all intents and purposes, identical. It's a jpeg which has a high rate of pixelation every time it's moved, copied, etc.

Also as Donna pointed out, a flash was used. You can see a high rate of burn in certain objects but not all objects. The flash isn't a far away flash, it was a close up flash, meaning the shadows aren't regular. Most people add shadows in a regular linear method, while the shadows in this image are global; long on the horizon while short closer to the poles.

Additionally, most photoshopped images, the naked girl for instance, usually would have a blurred edge. Certain edges like hair, are a telltale indicator, in that instance of photoshopped work. In this same theme, all cameras have a point of focus. all objects closer are blurred and all objects further away than the point of focus again blue. Naked girl and related objects have a perfectly aligned point of focus.

Also, gentlemen, while you may think that all tables and chairs are the same standard height, they actually aren't. The chair she is resting her foot on is clearly part of the table and chair set. That said, the planes of contact for the naked girl and the table and chair are, for all intents and purposes, perfect. You can tell when someone photoshop edits a person into a scene. They either compress or stretch out the points of contact. Specifically, they would have blurred her hand and/or foot, or some part of her body to make everything agree. There is no indicator of such compression or stretching.

Her reflection in the semi-shiny surface of the table.

All the signage and logos (save the coca-cola machine) are Russian and Russians have always been a little more liberal or casual about such things, which is something I've noticed before in this thread.

I hate using another to support my argument, but my sister used to be a professional retoucher. While that doesn't automatically make me likewise by association, I used to visit the shop she worked in often and she would point out how they do their work. I'm not saying an ace professional retoucher can't fool me, but I can spot lesser work easily.

Finally, if this WAS retouched, it was done by someone who is an ace professional retoucher who had access to pristine original images and, seriously, if they are that much of a professional, why would they go to that much trouble for a SERIES of photos?
You guys DO realize that it isn't just one image but a series of 7 photos? Consider the cost/benefit analysis.

It's easier to believe this is real.

I agree that the pics seems legit.

It would be an outrageously good piece of photoshopping for little use. Maybe if it was to topple a president or do some really serious blackmail.......

All the signage and logos (save the coca-cola machine) are Russian and Russians have always been a little more liberal or casual about such things, which is something I've noticed before in this thread.

If that is the case, it is a markedly different sort of Russian from what I was taught.

Just to take a word appearing a lot of times in the pics: Beer
(The word for beer is "pivo" in most of Eastern Europe)

In Russian it would be spelled "пиво" with Cyrillic letters.

As other have said, the Czech Republic is far more likely.
Pivovar is brewery in Czech.
(If you want a good beating, try calling them Russians

)
