    is this a real picture?... to me the boat and the people on it look somehow hand made...
  • ThinkBSD said:
    Yes its real. You have to remember that the Carpathia was In very frigid waters. The captain of of the Carpathia didn't have any heating systems on because the steam was needed to get to the Titanic. You are looking at a condensation blur. The film was glass. Then there is the breath of the person taking to picture. You can see the breath on the top of the picture. Looks like fog.

    If you enlarge it, it actually looks like someone sketched in features on some of the faces and outlined other parts. It also looks like their is a fingerprint on the image, center, bottom
  • Giuliano Maiolini said:
    Looks like someone retouch the picture using a pen or something over vanished parts drawing the shadows.
  • BobMeade said:
    Looks retouched to me too. No big deal. It porbably had to be printed in a newspaper or magazine with a photo printing process without today's definition - so they needed to outline the important parts.

    Titanic launched and sank in 1912. I'd say it's a pretty safe bet this photo was taken April 1912.
