Reader Poll: Did Someone Photoshop Joe Biden Into Easter Photo?

Reader Poll: Did Someone Photoshop Joe Biden Into Easter Photo?

Look close…

Former President Joe Biden posted a family picture to celebrate Easter. It’s cute and sweet, but something looks off…

By off, I mean the former president. He looks like he’s standing, and he’s larger than everyone else. Then there’s the hand behind the shoulder of the guy in front of him.

One of my friends mentioned that Biden likes to dress like those around him in family photos. Why is he the only one in formal clothing?

So I’ll give you guys today to answer the question: Did someone photoshop Biden into this photo?

The 2 dimensional President. I think it’s a cardboard cut out.

    They aren’t even going with the “Weekend at Bernie’s” approach anymore … now it’s just a cardboard cut-out.

    The only thing I want to hear about the Biden’s is that they have been charged, tried, convicted, jailed and their assets seized. Since crooks are motivated by money, loss of it will hurt just as much as prison.

I pulled it in to a photo editor and did an edge detect. The edges around him look the same as everyone else in the photo. If it was photoshopped it was well done leaving no obvious clip lines around him.

    The edge detection shouldn’t be the same as the components move to the vanishing point.

    Items in the back (such as President Biden) should be slightly “fuzzier” than those in the front of the image (such as the steps, the railings, and the people there.)

    I threw the image into Photoshop and did the typical testing of reversing the image, changing some filters as well as ripping the image apart to get the color profiles of the various components.

    Biden’s color profile is different than the surrounding image. That’s concerning as generally that means that a part of the image was added or at the very least, changed.

    I am going with the idea that the image has been modified. To what extent is unknown. Maybe Biden was in the original and they decided to use a different picture of him. Who knows. But the image has been modified.

I don’t think it is a photoshop, and that could be his hand. We can’t see the angle of his elbow, so technically could be his hand.

    You need to have really looooong arms for your hand to reach there.

    Lucifer Morningstar in reply to NotCoach. | April 21, 2025 at 9:57 am

    But look at this left arm in the photo. The upper part from elbow up to shoulder. It looks to me like it’s just hanging straight down at his side. And if that’s the case then it would be a very awkward angle for Joe to hold his arm to get his hand behind the person’s shoulder.

    If his body starts at the belly button, then it’s the right height

    diver64 in reply to NotCoach. | April 21, 2025 at 1:33 pm

    That could be his hand if his forearms were 4 feet long. His upper arm is tight to his body so there is no way that is his hand. The question is why do it? He just gave a speech so he is mobile enough for a photo. What is the point to obviously fake a photo so easy to detect?

      henrybowman in reply to diver64. | April 21, 2025 at 3:29 pm

      If his hand is on the guy’s shoulder, his elbow needs to be just about behind Jill’s nose. But his upper arm doesn’t point that way.

      Anyway, I knew this was a fake without any technical photo-analysis, because Joe isn’t sniffing the hair of the chick in front of him.

Lighting is different.

Was Biden really in that picture or was he not there at all?

The real question is, “Was Biden really there the last four years?”

Dear Big Guy,

Thank you for your kind thoughts. Yes, this Easter was MUCH better than the last four Easters. I’ll come by later, and we’ll play dress-up.

But no pic of biden grandchild from hunter’s hooker?

BigRosieGreenbaum | April 21, 2025 at 9:36 am

Someone posted that he looks different due to the angle, his angle. IDK still looks off like he was stuck in as an afterthought.

Given that – with the possible exception of one signature – everything about the “Biden” Presidency was fake…

Either he is standing in a hole on the stairs or has taken up yoga and gotten really flexible.

is Hunter’s love child in there?

Lucifer Morningstar | April 21, 2025 at 9:47 am

By off, I mean the former president. He looks like he’s standing, and he’s larger than everyone else. Then there’s the hand behind the shoulder of the guy in front of him.

And what’s with the suit and tie. You’d think if he was just at a family gathering he’d be dressed less formally like everyone else.

I had Grok do an analysis and the conclusion was a high likelihood that the photo was altered.

If it’s not a photoshop then it just demonstrates how little anybody cares about him. He’s stuck all the way in the back alone on the top step with nobody acknowledging him.

Normally you’d expect to see him front and center.

    Hodge in reply to Olinser. | April 21, 2025 at 1:18 pm

    That is a very good point.. As Patriarch and former president the photograph would normally be composed around him.

    I am also struggling to reconcile his height with that of those in front of him. He’s too low to be standing upright, and too close to those in front of him to be in a chair. On his knees? Hmmmm. Suuuure.

    henrybowman in reply to Olinser. | April 21, 2025 at 3:35 pm

    Pajama Boy is front and center. He’s all grown up, and his health insurance is under his own name by now.

Why is he wearing a suit while everyone else is casual?

If I never saw any of their faces again, it would be too soon.

Okay. Problem solved. Joe was not photoshopped into their picture. the family was photoshopped onto Joe’s picture.

There are several programs and online sites that can detect fakes due to different things (most commonly is the color profile of faked images are not consistent.)

For kicks and grins, I threw the image into two of the online sites:

https://www.photoshopdetector.com/

and

https://www.fakeimagedetector.com/

Both sites return:

“Looks like a computer generated or modified image.”

You people are spending way too much time on Biden. Better to forget him and let him sink into well deserved obscurity.

Excellent point… why keep kicking a turnip?

    ztakddot in reply to Hodge. | April 21, 2025 at 2:29 pm

    I like Turnips. He is not a Turnip. He’s a Beet.

      henrybowman in reply to ztakddot. | April 21, 2025 at 3:44 pm

      I like turnips, beets, AND parsnips.
      Joe is a zucchini — that cockroach of the vegetable kingdom. Takes zero skill to raise, then overwhelms you.
      Every spring on the East Coast, women in the office frantically competing to unload their surplus zucchinis on unsuspecting co-workers.
      Like Joe, zucchinis get added to inappropriate recipes just to use them up.

    Andy in reply to Hodge. | April 21, 2025 at 3:52 pm

    Can we get him on the ticket in 2028?

    He’d be the front runner.

If it’s not Photoshop, then he is about 3 feet tall

His arm is all wrong, there is no explanation for that hand on the shoulder and why is he wearing a suit when everyone else is casual? Photo shop for sure but the question is why?

    nordic prince in reply to diver64. | April 21, 2025 at 2:35 pm

    Yes, that’s the real question – why do they think it necessary to shop him in a picture when he’s no longer relevant?

    henrybowman in reply to diver64. | April 21, 2025 at 3:46 pm

    The hand thing reminds me of the analysis in The DaVinci Code of the extra disembodied hand in the Last Supper painting that is left over after accounting for all the other characters’ hands.

The Gentle Grizzly | April 21, 2025 at 1:43 pm

I’m no expert on these things, but the whole thing just looks way off.

Meanwhile the Dow drops 1,100 points, S&P 500 loses 3%

    CommoChief in reply to JR. | April 21, 2025 at 2:59 pm

    Markets move up and down at least they are supposed to do so. With last few years of the Fed pumping liquidity folks seem to have forgotten this point…nut hey there’s a different political party in the WH so, obviously the Fed won’t have a loose monetary policy for a Trump WH…..

    Anyhow let us know when the S&P 500 P/E ratio is at 15 or better yet 13. Then we can move back into equities at lower price points by moving out of the Treasuries which were bought low by selling equities at their highs last Autumn.

    steves59 in reply to JR. | April 21, 2025 at 5:05 pm

    Shut up, you idiot.

    Evil Otto in reply to JR. | April 22, 2025 at 5:57 am

    So?

nordic prince | April 21, 2025 at 2:33 pm

Lighting is different compared to the other subjects, and his size is not proportionate to the others. Pretty obviously a shopped photo.

Both Joe and Jill are dressed for Mass.

    Christopher B in reply to bev. | April 21, 2025 at 10:16 pm

    Agree. I think Joe is old school enough to insist on a suit for a High Holy Day, and he and DOCTOR Jill are color matched (dark jackets, light shirt/sweater, his blue striped tie)

    I think the odd look is the result of two things. Unlike everybody else in the top tier who appear to be sitting on the porch, Joe appears to be sitting in a chair or on a low stool, and leaning somewhat forward. He’s also turned at about 45 degrees to the camera with his right shoulder leading. If his elbow is resting on his knee that would put his hand about where it actually appears in the photo. That ‘turn and lean forward’ pose is something I’ve been asked to do when my wife and I have gotten portraits made.

    It looks to me like the photographer made an attempt to organize the rest of the folks to make Joe the focal point of the shot. Look at how the two women to his right as well as DOCTOR Jill are leaning away, and the woman with the baby is in turn leaning to avoid blocking the faces behind her. The only one who didn’t get the memo is the guy behind DOCTOR Jill, and maybe he’s fine with his face being hidden.

    It could be this was the best shot they got out of a brief posing session, and they just went with it even though the composition is bad. Could be the same photographer that did the weird wide angle shot of the Bidens and Carters.

All I see is Slow Joe looking like he is going in for a sniff of the brunette.
