My money is on fake. And I'll give odds. Very little about
this looks right ro me.
Angles of the jet in relation to the water and bridge,
The blurring of the water in relation to the jet,
The amount of water displaced and "adhering" to the jet,
The water disturbances that far forward of splash
BUT MAINLY -
It is a Soviet picture! These clowns have been doctoring
pictures before the revolution in 1916-17. This looks to
me like a picture of a jackalope or that 20lb grasshopper.
As a kid of the 50's - I can remember how most of the pics
coming outta the Soviet bloc had weird looks/sheens to 'em.
They could take a simple picture of the Moon over Moscow
and I'd get out my loupe.
