This one is also not done by digital modification. Either way, probably easy to guess the trick anyway – [via].

    I am pretty sure there is no glue involved.
    That would be too obvious.
    I would say it is probably paint.

    wow there are many dumb people in the world, first off it was stated that This one is also not done by digital modification. so its set up and a few guessed right that the candle is in fact on the floor because the flame goes up, next the carpet and phone and magazines could be done with a few drops of super glue someone said the cord would be hanging well it is but at that angle it would lay on the wall giving the illusion its on the floor and if it wasnt a drop of superglue on the end of the cord would and the magazine at that angle would stay closed so all that would need to be done is take the picture and level the camera to the wall to those who were correct congrats you are not as stupid as the ones who were wrong oh and the lighting has a luminosity so as not to show the candle flames shadow but is at a degree which gives the candle a shadow on the wall, i could give numbers but i would hate to confuse anyone further

    I got stucked here. If the right answer isn’t above (e.g. glue on the phone and mag) more tips & hints are required (mirrors envolved?, concave vs convex thing?, etc)

  5. lempsters says:

    my opinion is that the candle is not a candle as the flame seems like a light bulb to me.

  6. lempsters says:

    and the candle has no wax drop to prove that it is a candle in a first place. i suspect that is a light shape as a candle.

    electric candle, seen ‘em in shops

    I see three possibilities.

    1. The candle is on the floor and the phone and magazine are glued to the wall.

    2. The candle is painted on the wall.

    …or what I actually think….

    3. The whole thing is a painting
