BuckyRover Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Erm, not to blow smoke up anyone's ass but take another look at the pictures. I'm pretty sure that First and Business are different words... I've already posted link to the exact same picture ffs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricky Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Bucky seems to have found the same picture on the web. I've always took BKR's word on this one but that picture does appear to be the same. Although to be fair to BKR he doesn't say he took the photo just that he's been there. Piccy if his boarding pass for the flight will clear up any confusion.

Although to be fair to BKR he doesn't say he took the photo just that he's been there. Piccy if his boarding pass for the flight will clear up any confusion. He decided to doctor a photo found on the Internet while sat in the airport to "prove" he was there. That's all the proof I need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 I'm trying to give him the benefit of doubt Bucky, but agreed it'll take some explaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craigman Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Does it not look the same now then ? The photo could easily have been taken when he was there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 It's exactly the same picture. Stones are in the same place in the planters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyIvan Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 I downloaded both pictures and there is a white border running down the one BKR posted (like the edge of a magazine?) but they are exactly the same picture although the one Bucky has found is smaller. I even cropped the one Bucky found to match the one posted by BKR... It's not easy to enlarge the one Bucky found as you lose quality straight away... The colours are also very slightly different. My best guess is that it's the same picture but probably a photo taken of a picture in a magazine... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clitherover Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Nice try http://m.flickr.com/#/photos/arrobanewsroom/4727822878/ It's a cut down version of the same photo (taken in March 2007). BUSTED! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuckyRover Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Hang on, they might not have moved since 2007. The reflections on the plant pots are in the same place, the leaves on the plants are the same and the little white stones are visible in exactly the same place, and the angle of the photo is the same. In other words, it's the same ffffing photo which I found on the Internet in about two minutes by typing "Doha first class lounge" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J*B Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 It's the angle that has me worried. The chance of lining up the angle in the exact same way (I've just verified it on photoshop, the two pictures are taken to with 2 degrees difference) is so, so slim.

Can't wait to see what his explanation is though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OJRovers Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 To be fair if I was in the first class lounge I wouldn't want to stand there like a tourist taking pictures. Easier to grab a pic off the net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old darwen blue Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Will security issues not dictate that you cannot take pictures in the lounge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backroom Tom Posted May 23, 2012 Backroom Share Posted May 23, 2012 To be fair if I was in the first class lounge I wouldn't want to stand there like a tourist taking pictures. Easier to grab a pic off the net. Why would you do either? I'm not for one minute saying he's lying but it seems pointless cropping a photo off the net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clitherover Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 BKR never said he took the picture, he just said it was a picture of the place he was waiting. Aye but it seemed like he was posting the photo to prove that's where he was. If he's there fair play to him and all the best, If he isn't and he's lying about the whole thing then not only is he wasting people's time but he's falsely getting people's hopes up in a time when we could do without it.

BuckyRover Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 This is a great example of people believing what they want to believe when there is a mountain of evidence to the contrary right in front of their face. He is a fantasist. Wouldn't want to take pictures at an airport? I've been in the Dubai business class lounge and there were plenty of people with cameras that's for sure.
