The search of fake photographs BP is running. And it's a bit like finding Waldo in the famous Thurs
On Wednesday, for the second time this week, a blog has identified an edited photo on the response of BP's oil spill on the website of the company.

The Web site Gawker said it received a tip about a photo taken BP from inside a helicopter, which shows a panorama of workboats on the surface of the sea near the damaged wells. The view through the windows makes it appear as if the helicopter is in the air.
But the astute predictions noticed a small preview of a control tower in a corner of the photograph. A bad Photoshop work on the left of the white space around the shoulder of one of the drivers next to a patch of sea that was a shade of blue than the other regions of the Gulf. In addition, the zoom on the gauges of the helicopter revealed that the helicopter is not in the air at all, the dashboard indicates that the door is open and the ramp and the parking brake engaged, Gawker noted . The driver seems to be a list of pre-flight check.

BP spokesman Scott Dean sent to the post the original photograph. The Waldos do not jump to my eyes. The helicopter has been done on the deck of a ship on the dumping site so that the panorama of ships in the distance was there in the original photo. But the photographer, who works on contract for BP, dressed in the blue sea where along the runway was visible. He also adjusted the color and contrast as well as the inside of the helicopter was brilliant, Dean said.
Although the changes were minor annoyance was significant, coming at a time when the oil giant is trying to convince the American public that is open and transparent about the oil spill.

The photo of helicopter is the third picture doctored BP unmasked by bloggers this week. Earlier Americablog.com noticed that BP had changed its image of a crisis response center in Houston. Photographer of the company clumsily filled in the blanks on a wall of underwater video feeds with images taken by some of the rovers. It is normal that some of these underwater robots to do nothing and have a blank advance.
Americablog also exhibited an altered image of the Houston office, showing a crew at a large projection screen. The picture on the projection screen has been enhanced using Photoshop.
Dean BP also provided the original photo for this post. In the original, the screen seems to be all white because of the brightness and contrast with the rest of the room. Dean said that the photographer used "tool of the saturation of colors" to show "a clearer version of the same image on the projection screen."

Dean said the helicopter modified and photographs of the siege, such as tampering with the control room of Houston, would be quickly taken from the BP website. The original and modified versions be placed on the site of BP Flickr that people can compare them, Dean said.
