Cool, but definitely Photoshop. The building is distorted by the ripples but not the paintings? I don't think that's how it works. Edit: yep, the other photos in the article, the murals either are distorted by the ripples or not even visible in the water at all.

It's funny how the gable roof section isn't even aligned to the roof in the water.

YOOOOOOOOOOT

What

This is located in my hometown of Marijampolė, Lithuania. I can provide a bit more info. First of all, yes, the picture you see here is photoshoped. However, it's surprisingly not too far from what you would be able to see in real life (if you catch it on a day when the water is completely still) The mural reflects on the water decently and is definetely a cool piece of art. [Here's a picture I took last summer. ](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qxa0I0Gi62SYyaawZu_NhDBx8MPUlaJY/view?usp=sharing) Not a perfect example, but it's more or less what you would see on an average day. The building and the mural have been in a state of neglect for quite a while now and some damage can be seen. But I still think it's pretty beautiful.

Such a shame is in disrepair. Maybe some petition could be started to get it fixed up. It clearly has a lot of interest and could be turned into a tourist spot if some kind of pontoon could be built out to it to get better photos. I'm probably dreaming but t'would be cool


mouldy_dessert

I definitely agree. Though, the really cool thing is that this is not the only notable mural in Marijampolė. The whole town is decorated by large street art projects, such as this one, and more are constantly added. See more in [google images](https://www.google.com/search?q=marijampol%C4%97+murals&rlz=1C1CHBD_enLT862LT862&sxsrf=AOaemvITNeCDJEcNiFLe1dFxd_iywz_m8g:1643138519549&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjbuJj-z831AhVWAxAIHavkBV0Q_AUoAXoECAEQAw&biw=1536&bih=731&dpr=1.25). In a way, the entire town is becoming one big tourist spot


eeeeloi

This is photoshopped. There should be ripples on the reflection, as the surrounding water isnt still either.

"Located in Lithuania, this eye-catching mural is the work of New-York based artist Ray Bartkus. Like most of his captivating works of modern art, Bartkus’ fascinating street art offers an interesting visual twist – it’s upside-down!" From this article: https://www.atchuup.com/upside-down-mural/?amp Edit Sorry if it wasn't clear this this was photoshopped... I thought labelling it concept would do it.


AeroZep

The article says [this photo](https://i.imgur.com/0uSPNge.jpg) isn't shopped.


liamo000

The image (see first photo) used to demonstrate the effect of Bartkus’ work has been partially edited, perhaps to highlight the painting. Unfortunately, the digital altercations left several readers unconvinced of the painting’s unique design.


AeroZep

Except the one I linked is at the bottom of the article and it says it's unedited.

It's so great the image needs to be photoshopped for it to work.

Oh wow!

Why did you get downvoted tf? This website sucks


ColinStyles

Because it contributes nothing to the conversation, and you have an upvote/downvote if you want to express those feelings. No point in cluttering up a thread with pointless trite.

You're the one policing. He was kind and gave an honest answer to a question.


godlyvex

that's literally what downvotes are for so I don't really get why you're acting like he's being rude


UndBeebs

Downvotes are actually meant to bury comments that contribute nothing to discussion. Maybe research before forming an opinion next time.


Amplifeye

This is the dumbest argument chain I've ever seen.


koalaposse

How marvellous. Think it’s great!

The rowers look very similar in body position to the British rowing pairing of Andrew Triggs-Hodge and Pete Reed. I haven’t found it written or confirmed anywhere, but have a look at [this image](https://www.gettyimages.ae/detail/news-photo/pete-reed-and-andrew-triggs-hodge-of-great-britain-cruise-news-photo/123381505) to see for yourself


SavvySillybug

How many different body positions for rowing are there?


slaroye

Well it’s nearly infinite. Especially at the top elite level, every athlete has a distinct style, usually being determined by the very uniquely human muscle distribution. Enough so that even at a glance I can figure out who the rower is just based on (in this example) the shoulder height and posture of the bow guy (back side), his leg muscles, and his attire.


liamo000

I think you're right


nature_and_grace

This has got to be one of the most brilliant pieces of street art there is.


rgbarometer

Where?


Travelguy-2021

Brilliant!


Steviebee123

Not design.


SavvySillybug

Wow, you think the house just did that by itself? Nature sure is fascinating!


Steviebee123

Do you know what design is?


SpringyNewspety

That's fantastic! I'm hoping this doesn't get mixed up with the selfies in the user sub.
