Q: Why are some of the contest photos obviously photoshopped?
A: Do you know?

I usually don't post several shots of the same thing but these stairs were so interesting. Many different types of plants, mushrooms, fungus, moss and several small trees. Every step was different. I spent over and hour taking photos. Not to mention a few slugs and snails.
In the story Why won't my Camera believe me?.
