Nature Photos That Opened Our Eyes

Roosevelt Riding a Moose

Does this photo look real to you? We’re sorry to say it is not. You’re looking at one of the earliest examples on photoshop. The photo was released in 1908 and shows President Theodore Roosevelt riding atop a moose across in a river. Unfortunately, this picture is not real. The photo served as a press release for Roosevelt’s presidential campaign. It was printed in the September 8, 1912 edition of the New York Tribune and used in an ad campaign.
