*EDIT* Is this real or is it a hoax
Commentary:
The email containing this rather amazing image has been circulating since August 2004. Is the image a real depiction or a fake created with image manipulation software? At this point, no one seems to know for sure (except for the originators of the image, who so far appear to have remained silent).
The image has certainly created a lot of online debate, both for and against. Many people are of the opinion that an average uterus would be too thick and tough for anything less than super-baby to make such a prominent impression.
Is it real or is it a manipulated image? My gut feeling is that the image is a fake. However, at this point there is no compelling evidence to either prove or disprove the authenticity of the photograph. If you have some knowledge of the real origin of the image, I’d be happy to hear from you.

My first reaction is that the image is too clear to be real. You can count all the toes. I think the uterus is too thick for that much of an impression to show. And if it was real, some news show would have picked up on it and would be showing it. Just my opinion but I’m no doctor or expert.

its fake.

That’s a rather large foot for a fetus, don’t you think? I say it’s fake.

It could be real. I can remember seeing body parts when I was pregnant. Things that I could make out as a hand or a foot or elbow, etc, but they were never this detailed. However, I was looking down at my belly, not photographing it from the front, with just the right lighting. So I’d say it’s possible that it could be real. The mother would have to be a thin person like I was because any belly fat would obscure the detail for sure.
