Wow!        They could have fixed it up with photoshop or something of the sort though.

That is amazing timing by the camera.  It could be fake, but I don't think so.  The archer is slightly out of focus and the arrow is in focus.  Most fakes would have the archer in focus.  Regardless, it took some serious attention to detail.  Thanks for sharing.  Justin

Eddie,  I think that is why his wife started going to primitive events with him.  She was tired of him comming home injured from doing dumb things.  ;) Justin

that's a really nice shot, andy! but i understand it's not you on it, right?
if anyone faked this shot, he at least knew the arrow would need some bend in it to make it look real!

I bet my ass that that photo is taken by a camera that takes many shots per second. and I mean many. I tried that with a friend of mine and he had a camera that took 3 per second and we never managed to get the arra in the pic, unless shooting the picture from behind me.
