Considering the spa was actually cut and pasted into the picture it looks great!

It sure is one great set up. I cant believe the salesperson did not get them set up with a cover cradle.  Outside of that, looks GREAT!!!

It does seem that way but if you look closely the spa gives off a shadow on the french door and the steps have a shadow on the stone. If that's cut and paste it's well done but still it looks different. We'll need to get CSI:Colorado on this case.

Photo shop has a nice little plug in to ad shadows..
If you can't sell it on eBay, it may not even qualify as landfill.

you're right. It is a cut and paste - though pretty good.

However, shadows from stairs and shadows from pillow stand are going in slightly different directions. That's possible if the light (the flash) is close and to the right. However, shadow on the french door is going the wrong way if this were true.

The bigger issue though is perspective. The hot tub was shot with a wider lens than the house. This is what gives the wonky perspective. Notice how the tub seems to go 'into the distance' more than the tiled floor...

Overall though a good job - color matches, exposure matches, tub looks good in that place.

Okay, I'm spending wayyyy too much time hoping for a response on my leaky tub.   ;D

After much investigation, this is an open and shut case !If you look to the front left corner of the spa, you will see that there is a door handle leading into the house. noone in their right mind (unless he was from Arkansas )would anyone put the spa in front of the door leading into the house. I am certain this photo is not from Arkansas as the Ficus bush you see behind the spa will not survive in the outdoors in Arkansas. So an obvious and blatant use of Photo shop. 8)
