They might change it before long, but clearly Brown and his wife are shopped into that. Question is: did Getty or the BBC do it?

With all those images why did the beeb buy the (badly) chopped one?
Bloke named Carl De Souza did it.

wow, that is such a blatant photoshop well spotted, cant understand why they would do it tbh.
What makes you say it's photoshopped? Looks ok to me?

Personally, I see nothing wrong with the BBC using image editing, per se. It depends what they do with it. For instance, using Photoshop to change lightness or contrast to make an image clearer is fair enough, IMHO, but using image editing techniques to distort (make it appear that something that didn't happen had, or that did happen didn't, for instance) a news story wouldn't be. It's what they do with it that is, for me, the issue.
It is shopped look at the other pictures taken that day (1st of april) gordon brown is wearing a different tie
The lighting on the faces doesn't match and Obama's hand/ Brown's head don't look natural next to each other, in my opinion, as if they were different photos.
Because the 'shop is so bad, I assumed whoever posted it would just think everyone would realise it was for illustration and not an actual photo.
The only way they could make it more obvious was to put two actual photos in there.
