Giant Snake in Amazon River

Image found at RWSPhoto

I found this image on Google when I searched for "giant snakes". The man/woman who posted it says that it's a case of amateur photo editing. But it got me thinking that it might be real as there is a lot of photos suggesting this giant snake.

What are your thoughts?

EDIT: I know that the article was posted in February 2009.

It looks fake to me.

I highly doubt it would be that obvious from a photo - also that is A LOT of trees

It reminded me of the Loch Ness monster I mean there are some photos of the Loch Ness monster that look real that are really old!

LOL, that is such an obvious fake. It simply doesn't fit in with the rest of the picture in terms of focus and perspective & depth of the image. It almost looks as if it's a picture of a snake which has simply been copy and pasted onto some trees, with a shameful attempt at some ripples!

On topic- it looks fake and if it is real, its not a snake!
