If so, I don't understand the question.

The first image I linked to didn't have the link written on the bottom part, which made it more of a challenge to guess. This one is (kind of) obvious, but still interesting.

That's one of the things I don't care about the West Coast. So much of it is so damn brown. Ugh.

It's not obvious. You could just flip the photo in any image program. You couldn't tell that it was wrong.

That would be cheating.

As for the brown - what do you expect? The place is a desert.

This is sort of cheating. I've been trained by professionals in this sort of thing. In fact, I guess I was a professional at that sort of thing.

You can cast a shadow using an artificial light source in Photoshop, IIRC. That seems like it would be too much of a photo doctoring for this photo, on the other hand.
