out of site wallpaper

I hope this isn't illegal in any way, but I was wondering...is the wallpaper on costruzioni.net real? I mean, they can't possibly be unedited...they are just too good. (especially the one of the eiffel tower near the water and the one of miami beach). Could somebody please check those out & get back to me? I'm not advertising for the site, by the way...its in italian (which i don't speak). I was just curious, because it is the best wallpaper I have ever seen, hands down. (I am not knocking caedes...i love you guys.)

There is a wallpaper link on the left Pierre. But I couldn't get it to work.

I would say most of them would be professional renders of concept structures in most cases, although I know that at least one of the structures on the front page have now actually been completed (the bridge, it's in France somewhere)

Ooops! You're right, Sam...
skk13: If you are speaking of this one, my thought is that the general quality is poor enough. The calm water is due to the long exposure.

Thanks for your help guys. Samatar, your idea of the pics being renders of concept structures makes sense...after all, it is a construction website. I always wondered why they were there anyway. ppigeon, thanks for your input, but I disagree with your opinion (I really like the pics alot & think that they are good quality). The overexposure gives a dreamy quality...isn't life always a dream, or a nightmare?

Thanks Piner. Sam=Samatar makes sense. I somehow didn't see the connection. By the way Piner, what do you think of the wallpaper on costruzioni.net?

I was able to check the Eiffel Tower pic. It has nice colours but it’s blurry and has no shadow detail at all, I’d rate it below average but a nice try. None of the links worked for me so I am unable to comment on the other images there.

There are three colours, Ten digits and seven notes, its what we do with them that’s important. Ruth Ross

I'm deleting my account on caedes! If you guys can't be satisfied with those pics on costruzioni.net, then the heck with this! Those wallpapers are better than anything here! PS: Thanks for deleting my 3 pics I submitted caedes! There's 2 hours down the drain! If anyone wants me, I'll be at one of caedes COMPETITORS!
